What's the purpose of the front wheel brake on a motorcycle or bike? other than to do a stoppie, it seems pointless. but I've never been a hardcore biker.

On a motorcycle, 70% of your stopping power is in the front brakes...when you brake on a motorcycle....
The FRONT starts to skid.
No, the rear brake is NOT the primary brake on a motorcycle (or a car for that matter).
