Sure, since racetrack conditions would make it pretty tiring to use only 2 fingers for the whole race.
But for the street, what's the point? |

I had shorty levers on the GSXR and 3 fingers were all I could fit on the levers. I was actually very comfortable using 3 fingers for clutch and brake. Dirt bike was a different story, 2 fingers all day long.

Why does he do it then? IMO, leaving 1-2 fingers on the bar helps give you more feel & control. Of course, Rossi wins races and I don't, so

I think for most people who ride sport bikes and aren't trying to go from 180mph to 80mph, the brakes on our bikes are extremely strong and 4 fingers aren't necesarry. But whatever works for someone is always the best.
