Dont plan on stoppin very fast then.. I rarely ever used the rear. Most of your stopping power, 80% I believe is from your front brakes.

I can usually manage to do a stoppie on my YFZ if I'm careful. I never start off with too much speed when I try one. The front brakes clamp harder than any quad or motorcycle I have ever ridden.

That's what I did on my Gixxer at 1st til I got the hang of it. Started out bringin it up to a stop til then once I got used to it got up to bout 25mph or so rolling it a few feet. Before ya know it youre doin 45mph down Grand-Cent an rollin it on the front wheel ot the stoplight lol
