What is the normal braking procedure for motorcycles?

The correct braking procedure for motorcycles is to apply both the front and rear brakes simultaneously. Using both brakes provides the most effective and balanced stopping power, helping to maintain stability and reduce stopping distance. Relying on only one brake, either front or rear, can be less effective and may cause the motorcycle to skid or lose control. The front brake is stronger and provides most of the stopping force, but using the rear brake together helps prevent the rear wheel from lifting or slipping. This combined braking technique is fundamental for safe motorcycle riding in Germany and elsewhere.
