Maybe old choppers when the drums weren't much better but nobody with any sense does it these days

Grabbing too much rear brake induces skidding.

when i used to ride a bicycle, and i put on the only rear brake, the rear tire would drag and i wouldnt really stop.

i'd imagine a motorcycle be the same, but on a larger scale.

HELL to the naw. you put too much on that rear brake and all that happens is your tire skids the fuck out and your gonna be squirrely for the next few seconds...that is if you can control it, and you dont end up dropping her.

There is a reason why there are two big rotors on the front and one small rotor in the rear on sports bikes and racing bikes.

Some people like to share just enough. Bike looks like it could be fast, but definitely reccomend throwing that second front rotor on there.
