I agree with you that the most appropriate terminology for BMW's
servo-controlled (i.e., power-assisted) brakes is simply "servo-controlled
brakes", rather than referencing specific components (i.e., "EVO") that were
associated with the servo-controlled brakes on BMW bikes.
I will make those changes for future reference. Thanks.
