2 questions for new motorcycle rider?

I have a 600cc Katana. I have only riden for the summer, but I would like to continue to ride in the winter.

First one- get some waterproof overpants, preferably with insulation, that your khakis will fit under. They are a bit “puffy” at best, but when it’s in the low 30′s you won’t care. Besides, your jacket needs insulation, your neck needs protection, and your gloves need to be thick, so at least you’ll match. My cut-off is about 20 degrees. At that point, nothing I have can keep me from being in pain by the time I arrive, and that just sucks!

For the second one, stop using your rear brake so much until you learn to blip the throttle on downshifts. Most good riders use very little back brake (if at all) and let the front brake and downshift slow them properly. If you hammer a downshift with the rear brake on in a corner (newbs still ride like it’s a car, but you must brake BEFORE the corner on a bike), you’ll run a good chance of highsiding yourself across the road.

Racers set up their rear brakes so that it’s IMPOSSIBLE to lock the rear wheel. Whatever it takes- wax on the disc, grooved brake pads, lever adjustment- the rear brake isn’t that effective anyway. The only place I use it is riding 2-up when I have extra weight on the rear of the bike and need a little extra braking, or during panic stops when my butt goes all the way off the back and both brakes are mashed within a hair from locking up.

Work on SMOOOOOOTH downshifts and using your front brake most of the time. Don’t just let the clutch out fast, let it out slowly as if each downshift was like taking off from a light in 1st gear.
