As everyone has indicated the question is vague.
Here are a couple things I do know that might help.
Modern car braking distances are shorter than a bike and can easily be determined because anyone can mash the brakes at a specific speed and whala you have a number. The car does the work
Riding a motorcycle is not like this. The braking distance will be directly related to the type of bike yes, but the rider has a huge part vs. the car example.
If there is any skill that needs to be practiced it is emergency braking. We all like to test the acceleration but anyone can whack a throttle. I would recommend everyone practice hard braking on occasion. It might stop you from slamming into something one day.

Breaking distance for any bike would be less than 3 feet...
when running into the back of a car at 80 MPH
The bike will stay there, the rider on the other hand.. breaking distance could be up to 100 feet.
Braking distance for bikes will vary depending on the many different conditions and bikes.

Don't take much notice of the highway code, the braking distances in it are massively out of date.
Anyway, the question is too much of a generalisation. A 1000cc sports bike with twin 6 pot calipers and big disks will stop much quicker than a 500cc commuter with a single 2 pot caliper with a tiny disk.

2 hours isnt long distance!. It relies upon on the motorbike and additionally you length n wieght. in case you on say a HOnda cg125, CB100n and your no longer too tall n dont wiegh plenty, then youll have not have been given any problems driving around on it on very long distances. Myself I quite have a CB100n which i rode from birmingham to manchester to circulate to a freind. yet as quickly as I rode over to David Silver Spares, i discovered that i replaced into in soreness for days!. whilst i replaced into youthful , shorter and lighter, i rode a Cb100n to Lyon in france and back, in basic terms suffering minor numbess and extreme fatigue lol. yet keep in mind that motorcycles around the one hundred twenty five mark have been extra designed for city paintings- no longer probable long distance runs, yet its attainable in the journey that your careful and dont hammer the motorbike all the way. city paintings, those motorcycles are great for city-city hoping.

It depends on speed, the bike, what kind of brakes you have, and how hard you get on them. If you actually have to get on it hard for something, you should try and get into another lane so you don't get too hard and lock it up. Bikes aren't good if you lock the brakes up.

First off dude it's braking...not breaking. Second of all which bike? You have to be more specific to get your question answered correctly.

Depends on the speed and the type of brakes.
