1. When it starts to rain, it is usually best to:

Ride in the center of the lane.

Pull onto the shoulder and wait for it to stop raining.

Ride in the tire tracks left by other vehicles.

Roads become slippery when it first starts raining, especially in the center strip of a lane. When rain starts, it is generally safest to ride in the tire tracks left by other vehicles. The left tire track is often best.

2. On a motorcycle, which brake provides the most stopping power?

The front brake

The rear brake

The emergency brake

The front brake provides about three-quarters of a motorcycle's total stopping power. Use both the front and rear brakes every time you stop.

3. A sign that your front tire has gone flat is that your steering suddenly feels:

Heavy.

Loose.

Soft.

If steering suddenly feels heavy, it is possible that your front tire has gone flat. Stop riding and check your tires as soon as possible.

4. When entering a curve, you should position your motorcycle:

In the outside of the curve.

In the inside of the curve.

Where you can most safely handle road and traffic conditions.

All curves are different. When taking a curve, choose a lane position that is appropriate for conditions and adjust as needed.

5. When approaching an uneven surface, such as a bump or pothole, you should rise slightly off of your seat:

So you can jump off the motorcycle if you need to.

So your legs can absorb the shock.

So other drivers can see you better.

So you can get a better view of the uneven surface.

When riding over an uneven surface, rising off of your seat will allow your joints to absorb some of the force of impact. This will make it less likely that the impact of the surface will throw you off of the motorcycle.

6. Where is the greatest potential for conflict between you and other vehicles?

At an intersection

On the highway

On any road

The potential for conflict between a motorcycle and other vehicles is greatest at intersections.

7. The key to making a quick turn is to:

Shift your weight quickly.

Turn the handlebars quickly.

Get your motorcycle to lean quickly.

The key to making an evasive maneuver is to get your motorcycle to quickly lean in the direction you wish to turn. The sharper the turn, the more it must lean.
