There were approx 10 of them all in a row. I did my emergency braking and slowed to almost a halt before they realized I was there then flew away. I really thought I was going to hit at least three of them but luckily I missed them by about two feet distance and we all went our ways unscathed. Thank you for your tips. They really do help people.

I rode my dirt bike last weekend on wet loose leaves on the trail. That is great practice for breaking because as soon as the front wheel locked up I would wash out. So now I know how it feels to grab the break and wash out and I dont want that to happen on the road.

Great video. Remember to practice!! One or two parking lot sessions where you only practice braking like 20-30 times will give a great feel of your brakes. You can practice while you're riding, too. Coming up to a stop sign or light, practice your emergency braking.

What I understand about braking is that you need to progressively brake because the weight shifts to the front wheel and it gains more traction as the weight transfers so if you apply full brakes when the weight has not transferred the tire will not have enough traction and it will slide.

This is why I’m perfectly comfortable riding my Honda ADV150 for probably the next year or so until I get me something that has better acceleration. The progressive braking on it is honestly stellar. Genuinely thought I totaled it out back in April after owning it for ONLY 3WKS when I dodged some deer and ended up in a water-flooded culvert about 3ft deep🤦🏼♀️ Thank GOD it was repaired!! No rust or corrosion in sight. I know it prolly knocked off about $1200 of the resell value..but whatcha gonna do? My max speed (under perfect conditions) is 67mph, but if it’s windy, I can push it to about 63. I cruise through town, do the speed limit, and stay off of 4 lane highways/interstates with a posted 65mph speed limit or more. I’m just not ready to be in high speed situations yet-I don’t have the proper bike to do it with anyway! It’s a scooter 😂 Might trade it in for the PCX160 next year tho since the top speed is like 75-80mph. Definitely buying me a Honda CRF300L Rally so I can learn to ride a manual 😉 gonna start on the farm & dirt trails that way if I skid, it won’t freak me out haha

In the Yamaha Champion School they recommend to first "load the suspension", so you use the 5% of your breaking force first, and when the suspension gets loaded, you can squeeze it more rapidly. When the front is loaded you can break really hard. Much harder than you think it's possible. ; ) But the "gentler" start is crucial.

Hey Dan.... First great content and teaching, thank you. Question: I’ll be a new rider- as in taking lessons, passing CBT and then full bike test before getting (at the moment I think!) a Rebel 500. Braking is the area that scares me the most as I have braked late in my car before. Aside from practise-repeat practise and practise some more, is there anything else you’d suggest (or any other of you more experienced riders!) for overcoming the panic in-the-moment, harsh breaking? And just a thought- is it possible to tighten the break lever to reduce the possibility of breaking too quickly? Thanks ever so much!

Are their any intermediate classes ? Or beginners with intermediate classes combined? I live in Florida by the way. Any help or recommendations would be appreciated.

@bigbang259 2 жыл бұрын
@@nickenson40 what is your bike? you may not answer here but you should know your bike and how it loads during breaking. If its a sport bike then you should learn how to use the front break. Only 1 or 2 finger on the lever. Never ever one should put 4 fingers on a front break lever. Even with ABS on. Do you feel how your body moves forward when you break? Same happens with all the motorcycle. The front wheel gets loaded and the rear wheel unloads. Do the faster you breaks the more your rear wheel loose its traction. But the front increase it. So use it. Break progressively, start slowly with the front and the more the wheel gets loaded the more lever pressure it can tolerate without making low side, loose its traction. That's of course should be done on good road. Never use front break when its raining or on sand road, w/o abs i mean But depends on the bike kind, the rear wheel will loose its traction differently. The more chopper like the bike the less it will loose its rear wheel traction during breaking. That's why for a heavy chopper your option is 95 rear break only. But for a sport bike its 95% front one. Some tourist bikes could be 50/50 or smth. But still the general idea is that the more you into breaking the bigger is front and the less is rear traction. Same as your body heading forward, same is your bike. The wheel slides coz it looses traction. The rubber is very important too. You should know your rubber. Old rubber( 2year is old for a good one) gets tough and easy loose traction. Good rubber is soft and is expensive and don't last long. High pressure mean less traction. So when its sandy or wet low pressure makes traction better. But not too low, esp when its wet. The main difference btw front and rear break is that your front wheel will increase its traction during breaking. But rear break will give the best traction at the moment you hit it, and will immediately progressively decrease it on the rear wheel with breaking. Esp if you use front break too. The bike can put all its weight on its front wheel, left the rear one with nothing but air.

@thomaswarren2699 3 жыл бұрын
There's three main situations you want to be using the back brake for: (That I can think of anyway) 1. *Slow-speed control and coming to a stop.* This means giving yourself a little extra stability when crawling along real slow and doing tight moves like u-turns. When coming to a stop you want to finish your braking with the rear brake- this will stop the front of the bike "diving" when you come to a stop. It's nicer for you and any potential passengers. 2. *When the roads are wet.* You need to change your brake bias when there's water on the road. Around 50/50 front and rear- apply the rear gently at first and then add the front. This will keep the back end down which is a good thing in the wet, because if you suddenly lose traction on your front wheel you're gonna have a real bad day. 3. *Braking on loose surfaces.* For a similar reason as number 2, you really don't want to lose front wheel traction on loose surfaces because you're WAY more likely to have a real bad day. If you're riding on gravel/ sand/ mud etc. you shouldn't be using the front brake at all, because the slightest front wheel lock-up will send you on a one way ticket downwards. Notice how I didn't mention using the back brake when emergency braking. When you're braking HARD, the bike tilts forward and squashes your front rubber into the road, giving you a larger surface area to work with. Now, if your front is getting squashed into the road, the rear is getting "lifted", so you have a smaller contact patch and your rear will lock up much quicker. Don't forget, as soon as you come off the throttle, the rear wheel wants to slow down anyway because of engine braking, so you don't need to worry about the rear brake anyway when braking hard. Leave the clutch out and the engine in gear. This will help you stop. Finally, something I cannot stress enough: Trust your front brake. Don't be afraid of it. Your front brake is the one that's gonna stop you in a hurry- that's why your front brake disc(s) is so much bigger than the rear. If you're still nervous about braking hard, find yourself an empty parking lot this weekend and practice emergency braking. Slow, progressive application of the front brake is essential. Start slow and build up your speed as your confidence increases. Hope this helps. One Love.

@@559makavelidisciple5 hey no problem man, I've also compiled a playlist of essential viewing for new riders on my channel, I highly recommend you take some time to watch through all of that, I guarantee you will learn something whether you're a new rider or old. Also, finally, I'd like to share with you the golden mantra of motorcycling: *"at all times, be certain that you can bring your machine to a complete stop in the distance you can see to be clear on your side of the road"* Basically, the point is that nobody has x-ray vision, and nobody knows what's round the next corner. There could be a broken down vehicle, a fallen tree, an oil spill, a refrigerator that fell off the back of a truck, a rockslide, a traffic jam, or a big UFO parked right in the middle of the road. (okay maybe not that last one) so just be sure that you're always able to stop IN THE DISTANCE YOU CAN *SEE* TO BE CLEAR Edit: This also applies to riding through fog or at night. As your vision decreases, so should your speed. "We may know the road, but we never know what's round the bend" - Oogly Sproggs Those are words to live by. Stay safe. One Love. *Another* Edit: The series "Motorcycle masterclass" by "seaflyfisher" is a fantastic series, taught by an ex police instructor. A little dull in places, and with some sub-par dry British humour, but an absolute goldmine of indispensable knowledge.

Hi Dan, I have a Honda CB900 2005 with no ABS, after years of riding I noticed my emergency braking became quite standard for every situation that requires it and eventually I am able not to skid. When I tried my friend's bike, a Yamaha R3 2018, with ABS it happen that I had to perform an emergency braking and I'm almost sure my muscle memory react like on the CB900 but this time (not even at full braking), the ABS kicked in... It seems like the ABS kick in very soon, far sooner than when skidding would become a problem. What do you think about that?

Dan rewatch your video around 8:00. Although swerving is not the main point of the video. Remember: Swerve left low speed - direct steer as shown with bars turn to left. Swerve left high speed - counter steer with bars turn to right. It’s those little things that can make you a great vs. average coach. I only tell you this because I know you want to be a great coach and you are well on your way!

James Holley that’s suuuupppeerrr knit picky I feel like he turned the bars the wrong way cuz it makes more sense then having to go into the whole countersteering hard breaking possibles. It’s a visual teaching practice to less complicate things and what ur saying just over complicates and takes away from the point. Respectful opinion..

daydaydful I respect your opinion. This is a life and death potential and we all have to be on our best. Of course it is super nitpicking- self admittedly. And turning either way at higher speeds and braking aggressively will result in the same wash that he described. But how impressed would you have been if he counter steered in his high speed example and spent 30 seconds to articulate the difference and referenced a counter steering video of his for further education that he could link in the description because what he said was swerve left, but actually demonstrated was a high speed swerve right.

Fast Lane seriously I didn’t even know what counter steering was until ppl started making it a main focus it’s like I’ve been riding bikes since I was 6 and never had to worry about til the last 5 years I keep hearing this term.

Not all bike have more weight at the front. Some even at the back. Doing front first in these bike can make you fall because the tire grip can be less from what you think. Mispredicting front tire grip = fall. Even if you use squeeze.

I may be mistaken and the comparison is off but if you learn to ride a bicycle in a city like area, these concepts should be second thought but very important nonetheless

benjalyd totally! Dan add some rebound damping ASAP! The front should go down then up and then not bounce at all. Add rebound until you get there.

@DanDanTheFireman do you recommend using four fingers to break or two?
@jcc3083 3 жыл бұрын
Finished my motorcycle safety program course like a couple weeks ago & the instructor instructed that you should use 4 fingers because he knew a person who broke the a finger when he slammed on his front break with 3 fingers and smashed the index finger. Didn't see an answer but wanted to share for new viewers who has the same question.

The reason people are grabbing instead of squeezing is because they do not cover the brake. Placing finger at the brake will prevent grabbing / put too much power. And imagine if you try to reach the brake and can not find it?

Out of curiosity, why would you ever have all four fingers on the throttle and not two on the front brake?
@bryceglass8433 10 ай бұрын
What situations should we use the rear brake?
@GalluZ 6 ай бұрын
For me, anything that doesn't require heavy braking, like stopping on a red light with plenty of space between you and the place that you wanna stop. Also, when at standstill, engaging the brakes turns on your taillights, which helps your visibility to other drivers. Rear brake is recommended since pressing it doesn't take much force as the front brakes. You also free up your hands to relax or do something else.

@marianmalcolm4199 3 жыл бұрын
Are you supposed to apply the rear brake first and then progressively apply the front?
@jcc3083 3 жыл бұрын
From what I learn in class you should apply both at the same time but slowly ease of the back break and down shift to 1st gear if you are planning to stop all the way. You kind of have to do this all at the same time until you come to a stop but most importantly is the progressive breaking of the front break as shown in this video.
