A2Difficulty 3/5

On a conventional manual-transmission motorcycle with independent brakes, which wheel does the right handlebar brake lever normally brake?

Correct answer

The front one

The front wheel; the pedal normally operates the rear brake. This arrangement applies to the independent-control layout described. Other vehicles or combined-braking systems may have different controls or effects, so know your model’s controls before riding.
