Underbone brake techniqe

[necrotic freak]

---

another tip:

observe an ample distance for your bike to "glide" and gradually bleed off some speed before applying brakes. this applies to situations like approaching an intersection withe the traffic light on red. this reduces fuel burn and brake pad wear. this also makes your passenger (if you have any) to be more comfortable instead of bumping his/her helmet on yours as you apply brake pressure. lol

bro what do you mean by "glide" when approaching traffic light? new term pod na sa motorcycle riding dah,,

basin imo pasabot mag low gear naka from 4th,3rd... until 1st gear full stop naka? gamay nalang imong brake gigamit ani. ok ra ni para pang padong stop light nga layo paka..

When braking, most if not all of the weight/momentum/force will shift to the front that's why it is better to rely on the front brake than the rear.
The rear tire will easily lock up because of this shift in weight.
What will actually happen is that the rear tire will lose some contact to the ground, hence the locking up of the rear.

Most of the time, the locking up will cause the rider to panic.

I'm not saying that one shouldn't use the rear brake. It's better that it only supplements the front brake rather the other way around.

Don't grab the front brake even when in an emergency braking situation.
Gradual pressure is the key here. The front will never lock up as long as you apply gradual pressure to the bike.

I use my rear brake alone without applying the front brake only when I'm negotiating through tight traffic. Just to give you an idea, I replace my front pads twice before I replace the rear. 2:1 ang ila ration

Hope this helps

i agree with sir epoy

kaybaw ka sir epoy kung makig istorya ko sa laing about unsaun pag brake, dili nlang ko mag saba nga front ako primary brake, kay kaybaw nko sa ila i sulti. yaw anang front brake kay malamba ka..... pero ako gihapong front ako e brake pag start nko ug motor motor mao nama gud ni ako na andan, and feel sad nko mas effective man siya, shorter stoping distance. and to think my UB s front brake is a drum brake, but its still better than when i used rear brake.

Nindot ni na topic kay importante kaau ni, and also about steering/counter steering.

Ang pinaka importante sa braking is ang imo ligid, kung maayo pa imo ligid and dili opaw, maka hunong gyud ka labi na sudden breaking kay di man kaau mo lock up. Kuyawan kaayo ko magtan-aw anang mga motor na magdagan sa highway unya offroad tires ang gigamit, dali ra kaayo na mo slide ug asphalt kay gamay ra rubber naka contack sa road.

Agree ko ani! kato stock na ligid sa XRM 125 dual sport kay off-road man sige ko ka slide ato and that was also one cause sa ako pagka bagnos a week after napalit ang motor. 1st bagnos was ulan 2nd bagnos was naay balas ang dalan slide kau...so I finally replaced it with dunlop tires....nya pilit2x na gyud inig brake nako.

tinuod when braking sa front dili kausahon ug kumot nga murag wa nay ugma.hehe resulta ana sukarap jud ka.. dapat pitik2x ra jud na bisan pa ug emergency stop pa na.. atong timanan nga ang front brake jud ang nag dala sa stoping power sa motor. mas mubo ug skid sa ligid kung nag gamit ka ug front n rear brake dungan kaysa rear brake ra, plus ma eliminate pa jud ang fishtailing sa rear wheel kung nag front brake ka. ang technique ra jud para dili malamba kung mag fishtail or mag lock ang front wheel kay RELEASE AND PRESS ra jud, pitik2x. sa mga emergency sudden stop bahala mabangga o maigo jud nimo imong ingkwentro basta hinay nalang ka tungod sa pitik2x braking 2-3x until imo mapalock ang ligid nga dili mag fishtail.

para nako engine braking sa motor kay dili advisable. maka cause pod na ug lock sa ligid labi na sa flat road raka.. resulta lamba jud ka nga wa pa maigo sa imong inkwentro ana.. naay akong kauban pod nag fishtail siya imbis buhian ra ang rear brake para maka balik ka ug balance ni layat man hinuon siya sa motor. hehe

paktis pod mo ug half clutching. labi na padong ka mag low gear.. kada change nimo from high to low gear while kusog imo dagan dili sa nimo dayon buhian ang change pedal. long press usa din rev ka gamay dayon release pasulod sa next lower gear.. mura ra na ug engine brake pero smooth ang dating.

sir i think its called progressive braking, different levels of pressure is applied to your brake, pitikx2 or jerking the brake will result in wheel lock try this link here

Dunlop sad ko bro, ig hapak nako sa brake, urong dayon, mura man gani mo action ug tuwad ako motor, pero di mo lock-up. Mas maayo pud kung di kaau taas ug pressure ang ligid, 20psi front 25psi luyo.
