Motorcycle Brakes
There are two kinds of brakes on a motorcycle, one set on the front wheel, controlled by the right hand lever, and the other is located especially at the back to give a stronger effect of stopping. The old models have the rear brake on the left foot. However, several models have kind of brakes that are interlinked to each other, although one more than the other.
In virtually all cases, the dynamic paradigm of the whole market depnds on the fact that the braking force should be applied by the front brake when operated on a rigid floors such as tarmac, with the deposits being simultaneously applied to the rear brake. Riders fear that sudden use of the front brake will stop moving of the tire and they will not have access to the bike, or a skid, and therefore often fail to use the brake front or rear to its full potential. Another common misconception is that application of the brake that is located in the back of the motorcycle may result in instability
The front brake is generally much more powerful than the rear as roughly that is potent and can easily come from the front brake when enabling applied and in some cases fully depending on the model of motorcycle and motorcycle rider; rear wheels can generally lock and get out of control especially in bad weather such as rain and snow. Brakes can be of two kinds and it also depends on the motorcycle based, with disc brakes being easier to find on large, modern or expensive motorcycles for their far better and easily available stopping power, particularly in wet conditions. However there are many brake performance enhancing aftermarket parts available for most motorcycles including brake pads of differnt compounds and steel braided brake lines. Some makers alsohave created Antilock braking systems (ABS).
The phenomenon known as a "stoppie" may only be achieved if the brakes are used suddenly with no application of the rear brake if any; if sufficient force is applied to the front brake, the rear of the motorcycle body will lift off the off road, while the bike continues to move forward on the road. And believe me the road is hard. This is a often hard to see and skilled and generally illegal maneuver which requires practice to perfect. Another variation of brake use can be seen at top level motorcycle road racing and motocross events that are hard to find now a days.
