Too powerful front brakes...
« on: December 07, 2003, 05:37:51 AM »
could give you cracked ribs...

I know from experience. :oops:

Went to a motard track yesterday and applied too much brake power on the front in the gravel parts. Result - skidding front wheel and me on the ground. I truly am an Amateur! No MX in a couple of weeks. :(

It was very hard to keep up with the faster guys on the tarmac. I didn't trust the grip enough. The KX has enough power but it is harder to control than on a four stroker. Enough excuses, practice is what I need.
