This is one of the most misunderstood aspects of motorcycle riding, probably not what you think it is.

Yep, I'm comfortable trail braking. Some of my best lines in the Mountains, have been on curves where I've put a little trail braking into the turn. With my ZZR600 or ZX10R, since I only use 1 or 2 fingers, it's easy to modulate a very subtle brake effort.
