1. Gloves can:

Make it difficult to control a motorcycle and should be avoided.

Help other drivers identify you.

Provide an improved grip on the handlebars.

Offer no protection.

Gloves can provide you with an improved grip on your motorcycle's handlebars. They can also protect your hands in the event of a crash.

2. When a vehicle attempts to pass you from behind, you should:

Move to the center portion of the lane.

Move to the left portion of the lane.

Move to the right portion of the lane.

Not be concerned about which portion of the lane you are using.

When being passed, it is generally best to ride in the center portion of your lane. Being too close to the passing vehicle increases the risk of a collision.

3. You should increase your following distance if:

The pavement is dry.

The pavement is wet.

You can see through the vehicle ahead of you.

The sun is out.

An expanded cushion of space is needed if your motorcycle will take longer than normal to stop. If the pavement is slippery, if you cannot see through the vehicle ahead of you, or if traffic is heavy and another driver may try to squeeze in front of you, open up to a larger following distance.

4. Maximum front-line braking is accomplished by:

Using the rear brake only.

Using the front brake only.

Using both brakes.

Using the rear brake while downshifting.

Maximum straight-line braking is accomplished by fully applying both the front and rear brakes without locking either wheel. You should always use both brakes every time you slow or stop.

5. If your motorcycle starts to wobble, it is best to:

Downshift.

Accelerate.

Grip the handlebars firmly and close the throttle gradually.

Gradually apply your brakes.

Do not try to accelerate out of a wobble because doing so will only make the motorcycle more unstable. Instead, grip the handlebars firmly, slow down by gradually closing the throttle, move your weight as far forward and downward as possible, and pull off the road as soon as you can. Avoid applying the brakes, as this may also worsen the wobble.
