Too much rear has been my bad habit. These videos are a great help to realize my errors. My last accident was a braking emergency on the freeway. I went down before I impacted another vehicle. I think I went down because I looked down and that saved me from smashing into a car who stopped on the freeway because a big spool flew off a trailer. Full gear, no injuries. Broken clutch lever and a scratched windshield. It could have been much worse

The problem is you see a thousand videos of people locking up the front and the bike violently bodyslamming itself, and as a new rider it makes you terrified of pulling the front brake too hard. I lock up my rear all the time accidentally but at least I'm starting to get a real good feel for when it locks up, and it seems like it's only slightly more effective than engine braking. I cover the front brake and baby it (just enough) to do the necessary stopping when the rear doesn't cut it. Emergency stopping at 20 miles an hour is fine - daily lanesplitting basically requires it. What I'm worried about is stopping as short as possible at 70 miles an hour, and how am I supposed to practice that? - I've only tried once out of necessity (on the freeway in the right side fast pass lane) and I remember the moment I realized that if I didn't squeeze harder I was going to crash, so I squeezed just hard enough to stop about 2 feet from the car in front of me. My first thought was I wish I could have practiced that before it happened.

Why not watch videos of people practicing really good braking instead of crashing videos? lol if I'm going 70mph, I'm not going to do emergency braking...I'll swerve. Pretty much anything over 30mph, swerving will be your better option.

I agree your better option is to swerve, but i'v had situations on the autobahn where both lanes suddenly were blocked, gotta say i was happy that i had practiced stopping at high speed. Start out easy and do it many times, the bike wont suddenly do something strange, completely the same as when done at 30mph.

The more I practice emergency breaking the better I feel in the streets ( and much more fun dhaa!). I have a routine of practice which for now emergency breaking dominates before I do anything I go many many rounds of it every day I go out. Thanks to you, I watched these videos before but now refreshed info looking at it again and will keep working on the technique forever, to the black belt and then keep going. As you said, 3-5 times a week minimum to practice, I believe it's best just to have a habit of it every time I go out riding. Thanks a lot again. Your videos took me from dead zero level only a couple of months ago to a progressively more skilled and happy rider. I was lucky to find you and get information from you from the ground zero.

This video just saved my life, literally. I hadn't been on a bike in 20+ years and once I started riding again about a year ago, I watched this video (subsequently subscribed and watched a lot of your videos) and made a habit to practice short, panic stops. Well, this morning on my way to work, a young girl stopped very suddenly in front of me. I was able to squeeze the brake without grabbing it and manage the foot brake without high siding. Not enough distance, (my fault most likely) so I still hit her, but am definitely alive and not all busted up. Thanks.

Today, I was riding in the right, slow lane, and a car was in the left lane. All of sudden I see the car making a last-minute change into the right lane, making me swerve and to emergency brake. Still managed to drop my bike and I having minor cuts and bruises. However, as you advocate all the time here, I was wearing my full gear - armoured jacket, gloves, riding boots, and full-face helmet. Even though the bike dropped, it suffered very little damage. With the help of some "Good Samaritans" who just happened to own a bike repair shop, they fixed the minor repairs on my bike such as my handlebars were slightly bent and they straightened them for me along with adjusting my headlight and turn signals. They are really amazing people who are U.S. Military Veterans such as myself. Shout out to Thunder Alley Dundee in Clovis, New Mexico. I appreciate everything they have done for me.

Thanks for posting this, I've been watching yours and Dan the fireman videos and you guys are great. I'm just starting off riding and taking the MSF course next month. I'm having some anxiety with quickly stopping because I've been riding my e-bike (bicycle) and I've had people at intersections (where they have a stop sign and I have the right of way) pull out in front of me, this has happened twice to me and I'm going 25+mph. On my e-bike, I've had to quickly grab both brakes and ended up skidded to a stop just short of the damn car pulling out in front of me. I'm so worried this muscle memory will translate into me riding a motorcycle and in a panic situation and I'll grab the front brake and endo over the top or dump the bike because this is not proper technique on a motorcycle.😔

Thanks for all of your videos, I've learned a lot from them! I'm a new rider and practice emergency braking every time I ride. In the MSF course, we practiced from 20 MPH in 2nd gear downshifting to 1st, braking, and coming to a complete stop. But what do you do if you're in 6th gear and have to brake in an emergency? Do you shift down 5 gears as fast as possible while braking? Or is it more important to simply get the bike stopped? I understand why you want to be in 1st gear when you come to a complete stop but it seems like a lot to do all at once...brake hard and downshift five times as fast as possible.

Had a wakeup call yesterday riding on hwy 1 along the coast near Point Reyes with a buddy. We were just leaving a 35 mph zone on the last turn before a straight away. I was following several bike lengths behind him and he hit the gas as he completed the turn. His bike has loud pipes, which spooked a deer standing in the bushes on the right side of the road, which promptly darted out into the roadway only 15 feet in front of me. I was probably doing about 35 mph. Luckily I was still covering both brakes as I exited the turn, but probably used too much rear brake because the rear end started fishtailing a bit. I was on a 600 lb Honda Shadow Sabre 1100. As luck would have it, the skidding sound of my rear wheel caused the deer to reverse it's tracks just before I would have made impact, so nothing happened other than me having to change my shorts! Time for more parking lot practice drills, which is why I reviewed your video again. Thanks so much for all your great videos.

However, it had rained hard all night and morning, however the rain stopped just before my test, so i though,,,yay! but then, i locked the front wheel, i think,,,,,,,i locked something and the bike went out under me and i flew off, landed on my shoulder. My neck hurt first, then my shoulder and hip, but now my shoulder is still hurting bad. I am thankful to God this happened to me today in the school rather than on the actual roads. I was a little shook up and sore, but i got back on the bike and finished the course, the course went well, but cos i dropped the bike it was an automatic fail.

You talk the talk and walk the walk. The physics with riding a motorcycle is unique. Front brakes verse rear or even a balance between the two. Newtons third law comes to mind (an object motion shall remain in motion unless acted upon by an opposing force) when applying primarily front brakes do to the driving force coming from the rear system. Although I've seen you do it and have applied myself, it still blows my mind how this technique works. I was under the impression that the back brake was the primary based on physics not so much system construction and function. Interesting.

Squeezing the brakes gradually till it won't do it anymore left my 2 fingers swelling the next day. The van from the overtaking lane crossed all the lanes all the way to the 4th lane where he stopped. I was 2 feet away from his rear bumper when I stopped. Lucky? No. It was the ABS that saved me.

Careful with the cones. If you happen to be on the front brakes hard and run onto one it will cause the front wheel to skid... I inadvertently did this while practicing. Stay safe.

Last month I T-boned a person who pulled out in front of me. Wife and I ok, bike totaled. 18 years of riding kept us uninjured, but I'll always wonder if the accident could have been prevented if I wasn't rusty on emergency stops. First thing I'm buying for my new bike is a replacement set of brake pads so I can practice emergency stops regularly. Motorcycling can kill you, don't let your skill or equipment be the culprit.

Due to the weight moving to the front, if you don't taper off the rear, it will lock up the rear tire and skid almost instantly.

Good afternoon brother, I have a question when I was doing emergency braking I was never applying brakes on the rear wheel and only pressing the front brakes I felt it that my back wheels was locking up, and I also don't have ABS on my bike I have 2021 ZX10R non abs.. and on this video you was talking about when you apply sign them on a break it goes to the back also? I was checking my front brakes I do not see no lines of breaks going towards the back.. hopefully you understand what I'm talking about thank you

Great video! Would you be able to make a video on how to slow down before and in corners, and stand up the bike? I've seen it before in Mulholland rider videos where someone wipes out in a corner and the rider behind immediately has to go from knee down to standing. I'd be very curious to see how that's done quickly! As a new rider, I know it's hard to stop before corners like this as you often can't stop suddenly since you'll just end up going straight. I learned what you said about the hard way by grabbing the brake (didn't think I could make it, saw traffic in oncoming lane), ended up going down. I know the solution in this case was to slow down gradually and try and make the corner and I likely would have, but what if there were debris in the corner?

@MotoJitsu

just make sure you're in first before you stop...if you have time...number priority is to stop the bike. I rather stop 1 ft away from the car and still be in 6th vs trying to downshift and stop and hit the car.

I’ve been practicing your motojitsu drills and i always make a conscious effort to be gentle on the rear brake. Front break squeeze is good for me now, but every time the bike leans forward my foot presses the rear break harder and then the wheel skids. I think it’s due to the angle of forward lean shifting my weight into my foot. Any tips on trying to improve upon this? Thanks
@MotoJitsu

It's because the technique for the rear brake during emergency braking is exactly the opposite. Front brake is increasing pressure, rear brake is start off lightly, then go lighter...taper off. More practice.

On a serious note, I love your instructional videos, but in this one, it would have helped me if you'd explained the tennis balls before demonstrating the "bad" technique. Until then, I thought they were just random bits of carpark litter! LOL Thx for another great vid.
