Motorcycle · Passengers and cargo
What should you tell a passenger to do while riding with you?
Correct answer: Lean with you, in the same direction you lean.
Answer options
- ALean with you, in the same direction you lean Correct
- BFasten a lap belt to stay secure on the seat
- CLean back to help keep the motorcycle balanced
Why
A passenger who sits directly behind you and leans when you lean keeps the motorcycle's weight where you expect it. If the passenger leans on their own, or against the turn, the motorcycle becomes harder to balance and steer.
