Why should you use both the front and rear brakes every time you slow or stop?

Using both brakes even in normal stopping stops will help you develop the habit of always using both. Having this habit will serve you well in emergencies, where using both brakes may be critical.

• Using only one brake will cause the brakes to wear unevenly.
• It develops good braking habits for emergency situations.
• Using both brakes is the only way to slow down a motorcycle.
• The brakes only work when both are applied.
