Rear Brake

How much rear brake do you use around town?
While testing a new camera position I discovered I use a fair bit of rear brake around town. I know I don't use much if any riding twisties.
Ignore the slip on boots and regular jeans. It was a quick test. Had my jacket on though

Virtually none. But this is because the rear brake on my Aprilia is useless but the front Brembos awesome .Another bad habit ive got into.
I do go looking for it down hill on the Bandit on dirt but then it just locks up (no abs ) surprisingly easy .I have played with only stopping by using
rear brake only and it sure takes a long time .Better called slowing down. .Press nothing ,stomp lock .( no ABS talk will be entered into . )

Around town? Lots, particularly in slow moving traffic and at lights/stop signs etc. Out in the twisties, not so much.

I tend to load the rear brake up during slow moving work. Was tought to do this when i did Qride and it does make life a lot easier. depending on conditions i will use the rears during the twisties but that is more of a tap to straighten me up a bit before the next turn. all depends. I did change my rear pads to sintered metal as the factory rears were crap

I use it a lot around town..........it is useful in the twisties if I get a little excited, is easier to slow things down if the bike has any lean.

Another (I) whom uses the rear brake a lot in the traffic snarl. I find it easy when trying to keep my feet off the ground, but doing about 1 ~ 3 KMH and balancing. Once above about 20, both get a touch as needed.

Lots round town.. When pushing it hard on Sundays, and the last 20km's home from work , will use the rear brake to help tip in / trail braking.
