On a road that is crowned and curved, your footpeg might drag on the road as you corner. The solution to this is
- to lean in the opposite direction.
- to slow down while riding through the curve. ✓
- to straighten right up in your seat.
- All of the above
Answer: B. to slow down while riding through the curve.
Slow down while riding through the curve.
Why this is the answer
The handbook describes a crowned and curved road as giving you less margin for error, with your footpeg or side stand able to drag. It then gives the fix for crowns and for curves that are not banked enough: slow down before the curve. That lower speed matches the bank answer of slowing down through the curve.
Why the other answers are wrong
- A. to lean in the opposite direction. — Leaning in the opposite direction is not the handbook's fix; the passages do not say to change your lean away from the crown.
- C. to straighten right up in your seat. — Straightening up in your seat is not mentioned as a solution; the handbook points to slowing down instead.
- D. All of the above — This cannot be right because the passages support slowing down, not leaning the other way or sitting up straight.
Remember it
Crown or curve, the handbook's answer is the same: roll off speed before the bend.
