Just thought I'd add this important tip to new riders with little to no experience. I had a friend get in a wreck last week while entering a routine corner. MAKE SURE YOU BRAKE AND SLOW DOWN BEFORE A CORNER AND NOT WHILE CORNERING. If you must brake while cornering attempt to slow down by releasing the throttle and not using the brake or at most only use the rear brake. My friend had his bike for a week and only had his permit. He entered the corner going a little too fast and used both brakes while cornering. As a result (mainly because of the front brake) the bike threw him over the other side of the bike and off the road. Luckily he only suffered minor injuries but the bike unfortunately suffered more. When you become more comfortable with braking and using both brakes maybe you can use both, but an experienced rider will slow before the corner and accelerate through the corner. Additionally, I STRONGLY recommend taking a riding class to people with little or zero experience. Even though the majority is common sense, you will learn little things like this and it will save you and your bike. Ride safe.
