   • DCheck that it comes on with the front lever and with the rear pedal
   Ver respuesta

   • AAt least 12 seconds ahead
   • BOnly at the front wheel
   • COnly as far as the vehicle in front

4. Pregunta 4 de 25

   How should your arms be positioned when you ride?

   • AHeld high above the grips
   • BResting on the fuel tank
   • CRelaxed, with the elbows slightly bent
   • DLocked straight

   Relaxed arms let you steer smoothly. Stiff, locked arms make it harder to control the motorcycle, especially over bumps.

5. Pregunta 5 de 25

   How should you cross railway tracks that run across the road at an angle?

   • AWhile leaning as far as possible
   • BAs close to a right angle to the tracks as you safely can
   • CParallel to the tracks
   • DWhile braking hard
   Ver respuesta

   Respuesta: B. As close to a right angle to the tracks as you safely can

   Crossing at a sharp angle can catch your front wheel in the gap beside the rail. Cross as close to straight across as is safe.

6. Pregunta 6 de 25

   Why is alcohol especially dangerous for motorcycle riders?

   • AAlcohol improves balance
   • BMotorcycles are not covered by impaired driving laws
   • CAlcohol only affects drivers of cars
   • DRiding needs balance and coordination, which alcohol harms
   Ver respuesta

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

7. Pregunta 7 de 25

   A strong crosswind is pushing you toward the edge of the road. What helps?

   • AStand up on the footrests
   • BRide on the shoulder
   • CSpeed up
   • DSlow down and lean slightly into the wind

   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.

8. Pregunta 8 de 25

   Marker 3 in the diagram shows where the passenger’s hands go. What should they hold?

   • AThe rider’s shoulders
   • BThe rider’s waist or the passenger handholds
   • CThe fuel tank
   • DNothing; they should balance

   Holding the rider’s waist or the handholds keeps the passenger secure without pulling the rider off balance.

9. Pregunta 9 de 25

   A tire suddenly loses air while you are riding. What should you do?

   • ALean the motorcycle to the side of the flat
   • BBrake hard with both brakes
   • CAccelerate to reach a garage
   • DHold the grips firmly, ease off the throttle and keep a straight course
   Ver respuesta

   Respuesta: D. Hold the grips firmly, ease off the throttle and keep a straight course

   Steer straight and slow down gradually. Avoid braking with the flat tire if you can, and pull off the road when you are slow.

    You must ride over a patch of loose gravel. What should you do?

    • ASpeed up quickly
    • BBrake hard while on the gravel
    • CLean sharply to ride around it
    • DSlow down before it and keep the motorcycle upright with no sudden moves
    Ver respuesta

    Respuesta: D. Slow down before it and keep the motorcycle upright with no sudden moves

    Gravel reduces traction. Slow before you reach it and avoid sudden braking, turning or acceleration on it.

11. Pregunta 11 de 25

    How should you use the throttle through a curve?

    • AClose it fully in the middle of the curve
    • BPull in the clutch and coast
    • CKeep it steady or roll it on gently
    • DOpen it fully as you enter
    Ver respuesta

    Respuesta: C. Keep it steady or roll it on gently

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

12. Pregunta 12 de 25

    During your pre-ride check, you twist the throttle and let go. What should happen?

    • AIt should snap back to the closed position by itself
    • BThe brake light should come on
    • CIt should stay where you left it
    • DThe engine should stall
    Ver respuesta

    Respuesta: A. It should snap back to the closed position by itself

    A throttle that does not close by itself is dangerous. Have it fixed before you ride.

13. Pregunta 13 de 25

    What is the "friction zone"?

    • AThe part of the clutch lever travel where power starts to reach the rear wheel
    • BThe middle of the lane where oil collects
    • CThe space between two motorcycles in a group
    • DThe area where tires touch the road
    Ver respuesta

    Respuesta: A. The part of the clutch lever travel where power starts to reach the rear wheel

    As you ease out the clutch, there is a zone where the clutch begins to engage. Using it smoothly lets you start and ride slowly with control.

14. Pregunta 14 de 25

    What kind of face shield should you use when riding at night?

    • AA dark tinted shield
    • BA clear, clean shield with no deep scratches
    • CA mirrored shield
    • DNo shield, so you can see better
    Ver respuesta

    Respuesta: B. A clear, clean shield with no deep scratches

    Tinted shields cut the light you need to see at night. Scratches also scatter light and blur your view.

    • ARunning shoes
    • BSandals
    • CLow dress shoes
    • DSturdy boots that cover your ankles
    Ver respuesta

    Respuesta: D. Sturdy boots that cover your ankles

    Boots that cover the ankles protect your feet and ankles and give good grip when you stop. Saskatchewan requires ankle-covering boots for new riders.

    • BSo you can move out of the way if a vehicle behind does not stop
    • CSo you can leave before the light turns green
    • DSo the engine does not overheat
    Ver respuesta

    Respuesta: B. So you can move out of the way if a vehicle behind does not stop
