- Pull in the clutch and coast
- Keep it steady or roll it on gently
- Open it fully as you enter

A steady or slightly increasing throttle keeps the motorcycle stable through the curve. Closing it suddenly can upset your balance.

Frage 9 von 25
You are stopped at a red light with traffic coming up behind you. Why stay in first gear and watch your mirrors?

- So you can leave before the light turns green
- So the engine does not overheat
Antwort anzeigen
Antwort: B. So you can move out of the way if a vehicle behind does not stop
Riders are at risk of being hit from behind while stopped. Being in gear lets you move quickly to safety.

- A driver signalling a lane change
- A motorcycle parked at the curb
- A driver turning left in front of an oncoming motorcycle

Drivers turning left often fail to see an oncoming motorcycle or misjudge its speed. Be ready for it at every intersection.
Frage 11 von 25
How should your arms be positioned when you ride?
- Held high above the grips
- Resting on the fuel tank
- Relaxed, with the elbows slightly bent

Antwort: B. It also covers your chin and face
A full-face helmet protects your face and chin as well as your head. Many crashes involve an impact to the chin area.

- Hanging from the handlebars
- On one side only
- High on a rack behind the passenger seat

Strong wind can push a motorcycle off its line. Slow down and be ready for gusts on open roads, bridges and when passing large vehicles.
Frage 18 von 25

- Alcohol improves balance
- Motorcycles are not covered by impaired driving laws
- Alcohol only affects drivers of cars
- Riding needs balance and coordination, which alcohol harms
Antwort anzeigen

Riding takes more balance and coordination than driving a car. Even small amounts of alcohol reduce these skills and your judgement.

- Check that it flashes with the turn signals
- Check that it comes on with the front lever and with the rear pedal
Antwort anzeigen
Antwort: D. Check that it comes on with the front lever and with the rear pedal
Each brake control should turn on the brake light. Drivers behind need to see that you are slowing.
Frage 21 von 25
When should you check your tire pressure?
- Only once a year at a shop
- Only when a tire looks flat
- When the tires are cold, before you ride
- Right after a long ride
Antwort anzeigen
Antwort: C. When the tires are cold, before you ride
Check tire pressure when the tires are cold. Warm tires give a higher reading than the true cold pressure.
Frage 22 von 25

- With the strap open at low speeds
- Tilted back so you can see more
- Snugly all around, with the strap fastened

A helmet should fit snugly and stay in place when you move your head. An unfastened helmet can come off in a crash.
Frage 23 von 25
What should you look for when you inspect your tires?
- Mud on the tire
- Only the colour of the sidewall
- Only whether the valve cap is present
- Cuts, bulges, objects stuck in the tread and worn tread

- Never; two seconds is always enough
- Only when you carry a passenger in town

You need more time and space when traction is poor, when it is hard to see, and when a large vehicle blocks your view.
