Question 5:      How are the brakes controlled?
• The front brake lever controls braking to the front wheel.  Your right-hand fingers do the work.  The front brake is the most effective brake on a motorcycle. The front brake lever is squeezed in to control braking. SqueezedNEVER grabbed.
• The rear brake is pressed to apply braking to the rear wheel by the sole of your right foot.
• Learn to use both brakes together, it helps with braking control and creates a good habit pattern so if both brakes are necessary for an emergency stop, applying both brakes is second-nature
