Re: Hello from South Texas
Ask Rookie Rider what ? Lol. I engine break most of the time now, but i dont really feel it slow down much when going fast, like when shifting down from 5 th to 4th and so on. I really feel the slow down from 3 to 2 then to 1st gear.

Re: Hello from South Texas
Believe it or not the bike will be more stable and planted when engine braking as opposed to coasting with the clutch pulled in.

Re: Hello from South Texas
No problem, i had a feeling you were gonna say that story. I do flicker my breaks when engine breaking/blipping. Its almost a habbit now, (almost). My break lights were on because i was at a complete stop and holding the break, as i was still in first gear. My friend looked away for a second.

Re: Hello from South Texas
Thanks everybody for the interesting input. I've been taking the GZ250 out daily and learned a lot on this forum so far.
