If you cant lock up your front brake easily with one finger there is something wrong with it.HubertGarfunkleIII said:Yeah I would sometimes grab it with my middle finger only. I guess the best finger to do it with would be your first finger for both clutch and brake? the brake is a bit harder to pull
Front brake is very important if you want to do something like, i dont know, slow down. . . As long as you do not jam at it you will not lock it up and the proper braking method as far as I know is to start with the rear then about a half second later start with the front. Theory is that if you are loose already in the back your back tire and engine will be slowing down first so that the bike will not want to spin around from the conflict. If the front is doing all of the braking while the engine is still reving down and pushing the bike you have a chance of it getting loose on you. About fingers, use whats comfortable.muddy13 said:im only new to riding dirtbikes, but i tend to use my first two for the clutch and none for my front break cause i never tend to use it when im in high gears, just cause of the flipping forward motion that seems to happen lol
