    What/how to fall?

    LOL, this rhetoric is too funny... No clue huh? So the curriculum taught by the MSF, CSC etc. are based on "dreamed up facts"? What happens when data contradicts your experience? Doubtful: "Emergency braking on a motorcycle equipped with a conventional braking system must involve use of...

    Wow, nice logic bomb there pal... dismiss published data as anecdotal by referencing more anecdotes :rolleyes: Did you actually read the info?

    50 kp/h tank slapper

    Once again, the published data seems to contradict your claim... but don't let that stop you from believing otherwise if it makes you feel better. http://www.timeshighereducation.co.uk/story.asp?storycode=167234 http://www.msgroup.org/Tip.aspx?Num=190...

    Improperly Installed Tire. Is shop liable?

    50 kp/h tank slapper

    It's hard to find data on dealing with this scenario that's not anecdotal, but the bits of info that are available seem to indicate that weight transfer to the rear of the bike combined with too much firm input by the rider through the bars increases its likelihood. There also seems to be...

    Crash

    If your rear "is coming off the ground" (as Sushii claims happens to him repeatedly), you're not braking properly... once again, rider error. Practice, and learn to do it right.

    And what does the video have to do with emergency braking in street riding? You seem to suggest that aggressive use of the front will invariably result in the rear locking up? Patently untrue... we demonstrate this all the time. Proper technique, proper application of the brakes, is what's...

    Crash

    Yes Sushii, it's very different. Different techniques for different applications intended for different outcomes. You're grasping to find some way to justify what you're positing, which is improper street riding technique. You really need to take some sort of skills development course for your...

    Really, you're comparing braking on the track with street riding... Sushi is not my student. Lol... Blaming the brake for locking the rear wheel is like blaming the oven for over cooking the pot roast.

    Parking on sidewalks!?!?!? Wtf

    \ This. It's more of an enforcement issue than anything else. The "hornets" often don't know the difference between a moped and a scooter, and who could blame them? After all, it's not like the whole white vs green plate thing gives it away...

    If this is the case you have much bigger problems than a basic riding course will solve... perhaps you should reconsider riding altogether.

    Does the leader switch tire tracks in a group ride on multi lane roads?

    The lead rider assumes the appropriate lane position for whichever lane they are in, this position will change depending on the lane selection. The group then staggers off that position.
