And ..DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT PISS OFF COPS a friend of mine was riding his bike and a cop told him to pull over and turn his bike off and walk it home and so he turned it off and the cop looked away for a second and he turned it on again and tried to book it. well the cruiser caught up to him and he took the bike away from him so DO NOT PISS OFF COPS

yea DONT LISTEN T JARED LOL! jk, But he should know most of all DONT USE YOUR REAR BRAKE! use your front your front has 70% of the stopping power. a good tip to help you use your front is take your rear brake cable right off!

your rear brake is only for emergency uses only! like incase a dog ran out infront of you (thankyou cag07 for that example) but as far as going through a corner, its all about the front
