whats the best way to learn brake control i have been stunting for a while now my mistake was i never practice brake control i can ride standup wheelies, spreaders,highchairs flamigos all your basic stunts for a quarter mile i have real smooth throttle control no chopping my bike has a handbrake just cant get used to useing it (Trusting it),or the foot brake ,i have stock gearing clutch it up in 2nd from about 3 mph and get it up to about 70 80mph constant just dont want to loop should i buy a dirtbike or quad to learn ,what is the best to learn brake control (most similar to bike)

 

you clutch 2nd at 3mph??? you're killing your clutch if you are...

Remove your handbrake lever and concentrate on the foot brake. Just jab it every now and then while the front wheels up and you'll get the feel for it.

Too many newbs are in a hurry to do thingss like spreaders, high chairs, seat standers etc. just to look cool quick.... instead of focusing on the fundamentals of bp, brake and throttle control

 

how can i send pics to this post

 

+1 you shouldnt even be ATTEMPTING that **** until you graduate from power wheelie school.

and clutching stock gear from 2nd going 3mph......that is just BIBO status

 

I'm betting he meant 30.

 

 

get on a 50cc dirt bike or a quad and work back brake till you foot will work on it's own with out you thinking about it.....then get on the bike..

 

i clutch it up from about 3 mph not 30 its a twin tons of torque no power wheelies 2nd gear 39 teeth stock, and i know i now where a full face

 

Looks like you doing OK:YEAH

 

thanks thehate. thats the answer i was looking for not getting put down stunting is my life all i think about

 

OHHHHH SNAP THATS A TLR!!! I ****ing love that Bike!!!!!!:YEAH

 

i think im pretty good been doing it for long time i know its not the right bike but i just want to get better = brake control safety

 

i have really good throttle control can ride bp no problem just use engine break

 

practice the rear brake in sitdowns and standups. if you really cant get it on a big bike a 50 can really help with that

 

best way to learn brake control IMO is to just practice, practice and then keep practicing more. and then repeat this over again till it happens without thinking. if you have smooth throttle than its a good start. keep at it, looks good bro .

 

stunt the gsxr not the tl.

 

i was just gonna jump in about the tl. ya you can clutch it up from that low of speed on the twins. im gettin into stuntin my rc51. love that big twin engine breaking. xr/crf 50's work great for building your brake control and confidence in trusting the rear brake.

 

yea but that motors gunna burn up the crank

 

I had a tiller there sick bikes!!! but for stunting not the best, keep that **** minty and get an f4i...... but working your brake will come after time...soon you will have to tell your foot not to hit the brake cuz it just works it with out you thinking about it!!

 

a little TL pic whorin




as far as rear brake ..PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE
