Braking

There is a correct way to slow and stop your motorcycle safely.

Both your classroom and on-motorcycle training will:

  • Show you how your hands and feet work together in a coordinated and smooth fashion         
  • Provide practice using both brakes simultaneously by squeezing the front-brake lever while pressing on the rear-brake pedal         
  • Explain why both brakes should be applied at the same time when stopping.         
  • Cover why it is important to develop the habit of always using both brakes.
