4. Question 4 sur 25

   You must stop quickly while leaning in a curve. What should you do first?

   • AUse only the rear brake while leaning
   • BBrake as hard as you can while leaning
   • CStraighten the motorcycle, then brake firmly
   • DSpeed up to get out of the curve

   • AOnly on dry, sunny days
   • BNever; two seconds is always enough
   • COnly when you carry a passenger in town
   • DOn wet or slippery roads, at night and behind large vehicles
   Voir la réponse

   Réponse: D. On wet or slippery roads, at night and behind large vehicles

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

6. Question 6 sur 25

   • DBrake hard at the moment you hit it
   Voir la réponse

   • AOnly when it is raining
   • BOnly on the highway
   • CNo, wind, rain, dust and insects can still reach your eyes
   • DYes, a windshield replaces eye protection
   Voir la réponse

   Réponse: C. No, wind, rain, dust and insects can still reach your eyes

   A windshield does not protect your eyes the way a face shield or goggles do. Wear eye protection on every ride.

   • ALet go of the handlebars
   • BBrake hard with the front brake
   • CSpeed up to stop the wobble
   • DGrip the handlebars firmly and close the throttle gradually

   • AIt weighs less
   • BIt also covers your chin and face
   • CIt does not need a chin strap
   • DIt lets more air reach your face
   Voir la réponse

    • BWith a pedal under your right foot
    • CWith a lever on the left handlebar
    • DWith a pedal under your left foot

    Before you slow down or stop, what should you do?

    • ATurn off your headlight
    • BSound your horn
    • CShift into neutral
    • DCheck your mirrors for traffic behind you
    Voir la réponse

    How far ahead should you scan when you ride?

    • AAt least 12 seconds ahead
    • BOnly at the front wheel
    • COnly as far as the vehicle in front
    • DAbout 2 seconds ahead
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: A. At least 12 seconds ahead

    Look at least 12 seconds ahead. In the city that is about one to two blocks; on the highway it is about half a kilometre.

13. Question 13 sur 25

    Your throttle sticks open. What can you use to cut engine power quickly?

    • AThe turn signal switch
    • BThe engine cut-off switch
    • CThe horn button
    • DThe choke
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: B. The engine cut-off switch

    The engine cut-off switch, usually near your right thumb, stops the engine. Pulling in the clutch at the same time keeps the engine from driving the rear wheel.

14. Question 14 sur 25

    • DNothing; chains never need checking
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: A. That the chain has the right slack and is lubricated

    A chain that is too loose can come off, and one that is too tight can wear quickly. Follow the owner’s manual for slack and lubrication.

    • CPut both feet on the ground
    • DLean your body the opposite way to the turn and look down
    Voir la réponse

    • DAssume large vehicles always watch for motorcycles
    Voir la réponse

    Drivers often miss motorcycles. Ride defensively: be visible, keep space and plan an escape route.

17. Question 17 sur 25

    Your helmet hits the pavement hard when it falls off your seat. What should you do?

    • AKeep using it if you see no cracks

    • DUse it only for short trips

    A hard impact can damage the protective lining even when the outside looks fine. Replace a helmet after a hard hit.

18. Question 18 sur 25

    On a hot day, why should you still wear a jacket with long sleeves?

    • AIt is only needed on gravel roads
    • BIt protects your skin if you fall and shields you from wind and sun
    • CIt is only needed in cold weather
    • DIt makes the motorcycle faster
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: B. It protects your skin if you fall and shields you from wind and sun

    Riding clothing protects your skin from the road surface in a fall. It also reduces sunburn and the drying effect of the wind.

19. Question 19 sur 25

    Why should you downshift as you slow down?

    • ASo the clutch is not needed
    • BSo you can turn off the engine
    • CSo the brake light comes on
    • DSo you are in a gear that lets you speed up again if you need to
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: D. So you are in a gear that lets you speed up again if you need to

    Being in the right gear lets you speed up quickly to avoid a hazard. When you stop, be in first gear, ready to move.

20. Question 20 sur 25

    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
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: 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.

21. Question 21 sur 25

    How is the front brake usually applied?

    • AWith a pedal under your right foot
    • BWith a pedal under your left foot
    • CWith a lever on the right handlebar
    • DWith a lever on the left handlebar
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: C. With a lever on the right handlebar

    The front brake lever is on the right handlebar, in front of the throttle. The rear brake is usually a pedal under your right foot.

22. Question 22 sur 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
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: 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.

23. Question 23 sur 25

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

    • ASo your headlight stays on
    • 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
    Voir la réponse

    Réponse: 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.

    • ATime
    • BCoffee
    • CFresh air while riding
    • DA cold shower
