Braided brake lines

[Jay]

I have taken the Yamaha Champions Riding School on my Rocket (R3T) and we worked on front brake trail braking. I also took a local police skills course and we used the rear brake exclusively for all the slow speed work. My MSF rider coaches in the several Advanced Rider Courses and few Closed Circuit Courses, when offered, drew a lot of content from the Total Control book. All courses taught threshold breaking for the emergency stopping. It really comes down to knowing and practicing your braking habits for a variety of situations. I am a daily commuter and weekend explorer and road tripper on the motorcycles. I still have more to learn even after 25+ years riding.

Really the only people who don't use the rear brake are the ones who never took a course or took it seriously or passed
