How to, Emergency / Panic Braking on Motorcycle. 

general tip : never rest your toe under the gear padel to make it easy to shift to upper gear you never know from which side shit hit down just yesturday saw a student break his toe by that ...he had all protective gears and not a single scar on body apart from broken toe so please shift a gear and bring the toe up ...never seen anyone pointing this one out so please think about it

Very good advice.I am a postman here in Australia and we deliver the mail on small motorcycles. We are trained and must pass regular refresher courses on safe riding. My only concern is that when you actually show us how you brake, you use just one finger. We are trained to use all four fingers and squeeze the front brake, as you also said. Apart from that, you offer very good advice.I would urge every rider to practice emergency braking. Find a stretch of road and "when safe to do so", brake as though your life depended on it. Because one day it might, and if you are familiar with how your bike will react under heavy braking, it isn't as scary as people imagine.Good luck everyone and stay safe.

only indian motovlogger to give tips on emergency situations on riding🤘🤘

You are only one who are giving real info about bike and bikers life good job Buddy 💥

I am always brakes like this.. this works on 99% of emergency situations.unfortunately I had an accident.. But this braking reduced the effect off accident.... One main thing always wear your helmet and gears..

lifesaver tip: you must not ride that fast on city roads. it's very dangerous for rider and pedestrian

Hey bro thank for your information recently today i have a incident like this that i was pass through in a 90 km per hr speed sudenly a dog cross to my path and i make brakes and with the grace of god iam completly perfect now i think this is the most relevent video that you done thank you buddy ride safe all the best

Seriously best life saving tricks indeed I’ve ever seen. Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩

Super duper Mama. Really helpful video Vikas bhai. Love from Hyderbad

Very good advice. But in a panic situation no one would remember all this. So it's a good idea to practise these drills regularly so that it becomes muscle memory

4 years old but still one of the best video ...Thank you Sir

Thankyou very much. I had a solo accident yesterday because of a car which suddenly stopped in the middle of the road while i was on 80 KMPH. This helps alot for emergency breaking. My fault was i pulled in my clutch and used too much rear brake causing my bike to slide and loosing balance.

From my experience the front brake is most important while panic .. Most of the people say apply both brakes at emergency . But what you have said is my experience apply Front and then the rear for control ... Good piece of information 👍🏻

Doing all this things , one thing should also be done , that is ............ Shout :- *HATT JA BC* Would help you alot , really , I have done

that's all good but thats theory and a right one too ...best way to stay safe in a panic braking is trying hard braking on a daily basis and practicing stoppie on a daily basis that way you'll know exactly how much lever should be squeezed in an emergency situation. key is to simulate emergency in a controlled way on a daily basis. also keep your tyre in a good condition always and if you don't have abs it's preferable to switch to a soft compound front tyre ...cheapest one is mrf revz fc1

Really helpful for me......few days ago i had an bad accident... Just due to exerting more pressure on rear brake

Man you are the only person that actually addresses the emergency situation all of these RU-vid nut jobs need to watch your videos because I listen to them I would be dead by now good job and thanks keep up the good work

During the german driving license we learn a slightly different approach for emergency situations. Your approach sounds very logical, it would also be my first choice, but it is also a high level technique! Since we are talking about a unexpected emergency situation it is difficult to downshift while braking hard. We also learn to squeze the brakes while emergency braking. With ABS we just grab the brake as hard as we can. But we pull the clutch during that! The reason is that it is to difficult to downshift during a real emergency , since you have to revmatch the engine with the spin of the rear wheel or the rear wheel will lock up or brings instablity to the bike. Also if you cant stop right before that obstacle we learn to swerve by really pushing hard on the handlebars (brakes not engaged ). With a rear wheel which constantly brakes (or even locks up) we would fall during that maneuver.

Bro 10days back i hit a buffalo which came suddenly on to the road from trees which is just 50metres far from me and i'm speeding 110km/hr suddenly applied the full breaking with clutch still i remember by pulling the cluth speed increased i lost control and finally hit buffalo everything in the front of bike damaged including speedo meter but now i will practice panic braking in empty place thanks for teaching us without fee love you vikas bhai😍😍😍😍

I must appreciate the way you explain the things in a very simple manner bro. I already have watched a no. of your videos and I'm writing this comment not particularly for this one but considering all of them which I've watched. You are doing a great job man. Keep it up!

When an Indian fella gives you bike riding advice, you know you can trust him.

Only one person who makes videos for information purposes ❤️

I think a person in panic wont be remembering all these tips... Even if he knows, i dont think his reflexes work this much systematic....!

Wow really fantastic very very useful technic .thanks a lot vikas I respect your public responslity mindset god bless you

This is what i do .. most of my frnds will ask me to pull the clutch while braking .. im so tired to explain them .. thanks man for this video

Thank u sir.. I am newly owning an rc 390 and i am thankful to you for providing such videos

Very helpful. I skid my bike last week. A woman was crossing the road with out looking left or right. A collision was unavoidable. I decided to move towards right to gain time, but my bike skid in the process. I she have used combination of engine braking and should have kept the bike straight instead of moving to right. Thanks to helmet and safety shoes, my head and foot fingers were not hurt. Shoulder and knees were hurt. Neck was strained due to jerk of falling and hitting the head to divider

Man, this much knowledge about motorcycles can only be gained via experience. And, my friend... you have a lot of experience in riding!!!

Your explanation is very good and straight to the point, I enjoyed listening to you. Can you please do a video on how to handle the motorcycle on a bend when going over a slippery surface, such as water, ice, gravel or diesel etc. Thanks from Portugal and keep safe.

i have seen situations where the bike speed is only 35-40kmph but because of confusions riders crash 😂😂....Thank you for the information it will help me a lot 😊👍

This is a lifesaver tip sir! Thank you so much!!.....BUDDIES!

I like your explanation. Because it is genuine with scientific term.

Sir your 3rd point is the most important and least known to most bikers. Never clutch and break!!!!!

best indian motorcycling chanel ever

Gear cut is really a most useful way i tried in a panic situation and it works so I’m alive. Friends be safe while riding

Excellent points but really hard to implement and co-ordinate together!

in June I had gone to Ramnagar for a road trip, as I am a beginner I was not riding and was in the pilion. My flat mate was riding the FZ15. We were cruising at 110kmph. suddenly a TATA sumo stopped near the divider without any indicator and a turning TATA indica came from the other lane to go into a street perpendicular to the lane we were on. The indica didn't have any indicators either and my flatmate had to panic brake just the way you told. (As I am watching this on 27th July, it reminds me of the incident) Lesson learnt

Thanks this video was helpful .I had a accident today so just searching and got the exact content what needed .great work

Your videos are very informative, As you have asked if any useful suggestion or comment, I usually downshift all the time with rev-matching. I learnt it because I got locked my rear tire twice at the speed close to 100 kmph. So, I did extensive research and learnt rev-match. Now, I downshift every gear with rev match and believe me, I can manage my bike at any speed. I feel every rider should know this technique. It can be dangerous for beginner but with the practice nothing is impossible.

ASAP : Absolutely Straight As Possible!! 🤣🤣 Very helpful video sir!

But if you do not detach the engine from tire, then the breaks have to do more work to stop the tire and the engine too. Please comment on it. Also in emergency, most people are panicked and sudden downshifts without caution will surely lockup the wheels and ABS will play no role here as locking is due to unmatched engine rpm. Am it right ? Another thing you must have mentioned the downshift breaking/ engine breaking if not much useful if bike has slipper clutch. :-( BTW thanks for the informative video.

Very informative, thank you. I needed to watch this earlier, i had a close call today using too much back brake, luckily i was able to stop in time.

Nice informative video. one more factor is also important IMO. to execute these steps in panic breaking situations one must have 100% focus (eyes and mind) on the road while riding, if u have something ( different thoughts ) in ur mind or checking out other road side things while riding then no use of these steps. Coz all these steps have to be executed with in few seconds.

those things I do every time , but hearing from You, it is an appreciation, Thank You Baiyya.. LIve Long !

Hi, I'm an bike enthusiast and I'm residing at Bangalore.I Hope you have noticed in metro cities that the bikes are parked mostly on streets which is not so safe. May be due to space constraints and more other factors people are forced park bikes outside their premises. May be this could be the reason people are not ready to buy premium bikes even if they could afford one. It would be good if you do a video on "how to protect our bike from theft" or "Better ways to park in metro" Even if people are aware about this, you vlog may give confident to people to buy a bike and sleep peacefully. Please do the needful !! Regards Vj.b

Thanks Vikas superb video ...this is what is needed ... excellent...Lt Colonel Charles.Indian army

Yeah bro Perfect topics you select.. Aam aadmi ka problems solver..Vikas Bhai You are great

Hi sir I do always when I faced that kind of situation that I control my bike with gears first rather to control my bike through front brake but yeah you explained my things in this video which can be helpful for all bikers 😎😎🤘🤘

One risk you missed with engine braking is you could panic and rev while braking. If clutch is pulled in no matter how much rev you give the bike will not lose control.

Watching this after i almost killed myself while panic breaking because a dumb person decided to cross the road without signalling. My handle might have been leaning on an angle and tyre skid and i flew off the bike. Thankfully i was barely riding at 15-20 and nothing happened really happened other than few minor scratches. Now i feel like i should have watched these type of videos when i was learning how to ride. Learned a great lesson today 🙂

Really inspiring, would you like to talk about how to emergency brake downhill? I couldn't find the video to explain this. Thanks.

I have been wanting someone to cover this. Thank you so much !! Cheers!

Actually was quite good, that guy is riding in India and is still alive, must be doing something right 👍👍👍

I like the content and this man. How I missed your channel all these years...... Glad I subscribed your channel.

you saved my life and another person life... thanks sir for your life saving tips...

Really love it when you make these videos. The content shows how much you care about your fellow bikers. Hats off!!!

Thanks bhai !!! I own a FZS 2.0. will definitely try following this guideline ! Keep making n motivating every rider like this !!! Bhai I wish if you could make a video on installing a Rear Disc brake for any bike eg.like the Yamaha FZS 2.0. will surely appreciate it. Much needed for all bikers with only front disc!

Content is clear, informative and simple. Alwys good to learn from u, Vikas Sir. Keep up the good work.

Dear viewers plz spread this information as much as possible... 90% Indian bike riders don't know this method and they endup with minor n major accident daily....

Thank You bro, and my suggestion is that go for high speeds only if you are well known about that bike your using ,i mean that way you could asses the brake capacity and don't end up dragging .

Nice one. If you do a DIY video on chain tightening will be helpful as Duke has frequent chain loose

Excellent video Vikas. All the points what you have said is valid and useful. And added every rider must have the seventh sense called ROAD SENSE to avoid certain mistakes.

Very good and practical tips👌 One more thing I do is that I push against the handlebars to resist the force of braking and to keep an upright seating posture.

Sir your explanation is so good 😇 thanks for the help ♥️

👌👌👌 this was very helpful as once (I don't have much experience) but was riding my friend's RTR 200 (TVS) and pressed the back brakes and (* was holding the clutch back) realised the vehicle wasn't slowing down then..... As you said pressed the front break hard and well there was a good stoppie .,... This really helped me thanks!

First one to cover how to handle the clutch. All the other videos seem to skip this important piece🤷🏻‍♂️

These tips are very useful. Thanks a lot. Now watching these old videos. Content is 👌👌👌

Great tips , Downshifting right before applying front brake will make the motorcycle more stabilized

Great advice, Vikas! Will practice the aggressive downshifting in these scenarios starting tomorrow. One point though, in most panic situations I have been. People crossing the road end up freezing where they are looking at the bike coming. And if I don't swerve my steering a little then I would have surely bumped into them. I generally try to change my line by just a little bit and in a quick split second and then make the bike straight again to break harder. Is that something you would discourage?

Today I saw your few videos ...littrely I fall in love with your videos as well as with your tips ..❤

am not a rider ...but like watching ur vdos anyway....keep up the good work...cheers

That's why we love Vikas bhai. All are rest Vikas bhai best.Very informative.

One of your best videos. Very informative.

Left foot always on top of gear pedal so that one can downshift at least 2 gears quickly for engine braking. Right foot always on top of brake pedal so that one can stop the rear tire quickly with moderate force for those without ABS. Always use 4 fingers to pull the clutch and front brake. Never use one or two fingers for the clutch and front brake. Both knees should always touch the tank while riding to prepare for e-braking.

No man u are an expert.. Thank sir

Brother, your speeches are so informative İ would like to know while downshifting, rear tier skid so what to do to prevent this

in bikes without slipper clutch...can engine braking not burn the clutch plates?

Nicely put up all lifesaver tips. Dear all browsing geeks, this tips will be helpful only on regular practices. Remember practice makes the man perfect.

Really Helpfull Information. Tell us what will we do if suddenly we getting sand on the road and we supposed to do emergency breaking situation?

Sir you're the best motorcycle expert, i follow you and I respect you. Love your videos.

Loved ur videos really helpful ... for a new rider like me on heavy sportsbike.... Ur sitting position video helped me a lot from wrist pain thanx

At 130 or 140 we dont have this much time to downshift, so it will be better to apply your front brakes first slowly and then gradually increasing the pressure and then start applying rear brakes. It will be helpful. We should not bother about downshiftinh our sole purpose should be to keep bike balanced and steady in such sitiations...

You never know when it happens. But when it does you better be prepared. I'm proud of how I managed to stop my bike to save his pathetic ass as he decides to run to cross the road. I had just about a second to react. Thanks for the tips man👍

Great man! Your explanation was very practical. I don't follow anything by books. Practicality matters

Giving small bite to the front i.e release-pull release-pull will increase the stopping Power of the brake and also work as manual abs ..Cherry Bro Thought Me This

Brother it is very helpful, but show me your own riding of that speed and it is like a seeing a practical experience

during emergency...its better to apply both the breaks at the same tym..and also downshifting...applying both the breaks wil effectively reduce the stopping distance. ...and wil also reduces the chance of skidding the vehicle...

plz ride the new R15 v3 bro and give us the opinion obout it

Dada you're great! Love From Bangladesh 😍

just to share my points, doesnt it better to apply a little rear brake and taper off while you start squeezing front brake? i think we have a different technique regarding the rear brake...

One more tip I found is to apply your front break keeping your handle strait and then apply pressure to the front breaks and release again just like hold releases, hold release a kind of manual slow abs action. Please do not try these options over drum break bikes

Vikas sir, Love the way you explain every small point in ur videos.. Love ur simplycity sir..! Keep up the good work!!

Your videos are very informative, looking forward to more such helpful video.

Hi Vikas. I like your bike and the video. Please do a video on braking in turnings.

Vikas... How to break in turnings. If you are already into the corner and you realize you are very fast and going to overshoot.

Use kill switch and pull the front brake slowly not too slow but medium slow & then rear break also , if you panic in any situation take deep breathe in & out & pull over your bike to one side of the road & calm down yourself .

This was so helpful for a beginner rider like me. Thank you sir.

the rear brake is to stabalize the motorcycle, so start using it as soon as the bike start to wobble. not after 80% of thebraking is done... use all what you got.

Some suggests to apply clutch atleast while in panic braking because they think engine braking cover more distance. Also without clutch if we want to to stop to 0kmph engine may stall and rear wheel may get lock as well. What's your thoughts on this ??

Vikas Babu...tel us about how to perform cornering lyk a professional rider....lyk...they are tilting there bike almost with the ground...i m a rider/Driver...riding since 2007 ...i want to learn this thing
