RsV4

I dont use the rear brake much when on a decent run out of town, but anything below 35mph then thats when i use the rear brake, it works imo much better than using the front. I did an advanced riding class and used the front brake all the time, when i was getting debriefed the instructor mentioned this very thing as he seen the front of the bike dipping whenever i applied the brake. Its much smoother to use the rear in low mph.

Looking forward to hearing more about you, your experience, etc, etc. Bullet Thanks for the welcome Bullet, been riding for 8 years now all on sport bikes had a ninja 636 and have just recently parted with my then zx10r which was a great bike but when i took the v4 out it was completely different and more focused. I have been to knockhill which is the closest track i have available, but looking to go to a level 1 class in 2010. Can you recommend a track, where there are plenty of corners? I would even consider an abroad track for level 1 and 2 combined if poss. Kev

Hi, new to the forum. I stay in the east of Scotland, and have just purchased an Rsv4. Hoping to get myself and my wife through all the levels. Angie has a honda cbr600f and an Aprilia 750. So saying hello to all. Kev
