Practice question

Why is it important to check motorcycle brake fluid level and condition regularly?

Because brake fluid evaporates into fuel
Because brake fluid is hygroscopic (absorbs moisture from the air over time), lowering its boiling point and causing sudden brake failure due to vapor lock during heavy braking
Because brake fluid lubricates the spark plugs
Because brake fluid charges the battery

Answer: B — Because brake fluid is hygroscopic (absorbs moisture from the air over time), lowering its boiling point and causing sudden brake failure due to vapor lock during heavy braking
