Why teach four fingered braking?

from Around the Wheel with Bret Tkacs Hosted by Bret Tkacs

WHY TEACH FOUR FINGERED BRAKING? Guest: David Weed, currently an MSF-certified RiderCoach and RiderCoach trainer and formerly the lead technical specialist for the Washington State Motorcycle Program. Topic: Bret and David dive into the controversial topic of teaching and using four fingers on the brake, why it's still being taught, and strategies to improve as a rider (hint: it involves questioning the status quo). Key Takeaway:We need to learn from what the bike is telling us and be able to make our own choices. Each choice has it's own advantages and consequences. To be a really good rider, a talented rider, we must make choices in the moment and know when something makes sense and when it doesn't.
