This thread is very interesting. Thank you.

I teach to British Motorcycle Test and Advanced Standard. Currently working with a friend to set up a motorcycle training school on Koh Samui.

We have included a slow riding element in the UK Motorcycle test as well. All above advice is good. But no mention of the rear brake.

Try using the rear brake to control your speed when riding slowly. Drag it against the force of the engine. You will find it has a stabilising effect.

I wrote an article on slow riding and the British test.

The basic art of slow riding control

Strange. The post directly above yours mentions the back brake = rear brake

Doesn't matter.

Stop making sense.

You've been warned.

just a bit of front break and a bit of throttle willkeep you straight. I was 66 and I passed it come on now.

Front brake use is incorrect for such an easy maneuver.
