Practice question

How should you handle a curve that tightens unexpectedly (a 'decreasing-radius' curve)?

  1. Brake hard while leaned over
  2. Look further through the turn to your new exit, gently press harder on the inside grip to add lean, and keep a steady or slightly trailing throttle — avoid hard braking mid-corner
  3. Sit upright and let the bike straighten out
  4. Close the throttle abruptly

Answer: B — Look further through the turn to your new exit, gently press harder on the inside grip to add lean, and keep a steady or slightly trailing throttle — avoid hard braking mid-corner
