The Ultimate Brakeless/Front/Rear/How many brakes? thread

When braking mega fucking hard, get your arse over the back of the bike. Helps for 2 reasons.

1. Less likely to endo/chuck yourself over the front.
   
2. You can get the rear wheel to help you stop. More weight on rear wheel, more normal force and thus more friction and ultimately quicker stopping. (especially with some who has such a large arse as me).
   
   

Two brakes on a SS, If the front or rear fail you can take it slow and still get home safe. Otherwise you are using your feet either in the wheels or on the road to burn off your speed.
