Re: hand brake vs foot brake
running from the problem is not what i want,
all though i already have the hand brake set up just needs pluming

like your boy said learn the foot brake first , there are going to be many times you'll need foot brake more than hand ! ! ! just practice the foot and in the end your hand brake skills will even be easier !

everyone has the list, it's programmed into thier conciousness at birth, althought not everyone calls it thier "squid list" and LOTS of poeple ignore it all the time.
some poeple call it "common sense"

Re: hand brake vs foot brake
Other than using your foot or your fingers they are both the same. Break control is being able to work or feather the brake (which is an on/off or pumping action not mashing or riding the brake) in the bp while keeping it from going on the bar, coming back down on two wheels, or stalling...
Keep practicing it will just click one day.
Good luck

Re: hand brake vs foot brake
yea, I usteo be a squid, i bought so much **** for my gsx-r 750 befor i even knew how to use it. I tried learning foot brake but couldnt, so i tried going to hand brake... well - I totaled my bike a month ago and now have a pretty much stock f4i with a cage on it and im learning MUCH quicker.
this pic was taken yesterday... day 2 of riding my f4i...
yea its just a stoppie and not a wheelie but still, take it one step at a time and learning will be easier.
