Ashamed to admit but I can't stop. E.g. I am going into 2nd gear in heavy traffic I need to stop completely for a few seconds every 10m. in front of an obstacle.

Which script should I use? (1. step off the throttle 2. apply the brake).

If you need to ask, you should'nt be driving!

Definitely throttle first as that alone could slow you sufficiently, if not use the brakes, i use left combo brake first

Buy an automatic, the decision is made for you...........

If I step off the throttle, motorcycle still rolling about 10 km/h.
1. Throttle
2. Brake OR clutch?..

My apologies, I wrongly assumed you were talking about a car, not a motorbike......

sell the bike and buy a car ....  you'll live longer that way    !

Dip the clutch at those speeds then temper down with rear brake. 

Have you tried making merit at a temple? ????

Daihatsu ... 550cc (Mira), quite popular

 

OP did state earlier 125 vs 500cc, so assume yes, it's a MB.  As don't know many 125cc cars permitted on the road.

This post IS in the Motorcycle forum. Sorry Neal, you got there before me.

Still not sure if the OP is serious .... suspect a troll.  Jumping from an auto scooter to (I guess) a Honda CB500 without knowing how to use clutch and brakes properly seems like a high risk plan .... but just in case the OP was serious .....

 

Except in an emergency stop situation, you go down through the gears to slow down, adding a touch of front and rear brake if needed, then to come to a complete stop from low speed, you can use either brake, but it easier to use the rear, or perhaps one finger on the front.

 

To prevent the engine stalling, you also pull in the clutch.  If riding an older bike (or an old design bike ... i.e Chinese) you will flip it into neutral before you stop, otherwise you'll be faffing about trying to find neutral.

 

For an emergency stop - you need to practice this, a lot, so it becomes an automated reaction.

 

Ease on the front brake quite firmly until you feel the front wheel load up (you can sense this by the suspension diving and the sound from the tyre) then pull the front brake hard, but release a little if you feel the front is going to lock.  At the same time lightly press the rear brake, and go quickly down through the gears - so you are always in the right gear for your rapidly reducing speed (as accelerating quickly may become a better option than braking, depending on the situation.

 

To do all this quickly is why you need to practice - ideally on different surfaces ... wet, dry, gravel, off road.  ABS adds to the safety, but still good to be able to 'feel' your wheels when stopping.

I still remember the Yellow Pages ad when a guy with a British/Welsh accent is trying to find spare parts for his Goggomobil.
