WHAT'S THE SAFEST WAY TO STOP A MOTORCYCLE ON A WET ROAD?

Rain makes the roads slippery, and that’s the last thing you want when you’re riding a motorcycle. 

It’s important you’re aware of how to brake in these types of conditions. It’s best to squeeze the front and rear brakes gradually to cut down the danger of skidding.

How do you ride a motorbike in the rain?

Remember that the rear brake is important in maintaining stability on wet roads, so use that more because the front wheel is more likely to lock up on slippery surfaces.

It’s always a good idea to ride slower in the rain, as well as braking, accelerating and turning more gently than usual.
