Hey fans, I bought a motorbike the other day and have been riding a total of 2 hours. I have a braking question, and this is based off how I drive my car, do you or should you, engine brake coming to a stop? Or slow down, clutch in, shift to first and then use brakes? Or do both? And if that's the case, in what situation?

Alot of these points I have in my mind as I ride. Conscious of them is one thing and then putting it into practice is another. Yes, I plan to practice techniques each time I ride. Focussing on certain ones each time to get better at them.
