What is a sound strategy for riding through a curve?
- A.Enter fast and brake hard at the middle
- B.Look down at the line directly in front of the tire
- C.Slow before entering, look through the turn, and roll on the throttle gently through it
- D.Close your eyes briefly if the curve tightens
Correct answer
C. Slow before entering, look through the turn, and roll on the throttle gently through it
Why
Setting your speed before the curve leaves traction available for turning and avoids mid-corner braking. Looking through the turn toward the exit and maintaining gentle throttle keeps the motorcycle stable.
