Never ride too fast for conditions

Setup (Search Setup Smooth) - to setup for a turn: adjust speed and lane position Before shifting to a lower gear: - Be sure the road speed is slow enough so you do not over-rev or cause the rear wheel to skid TCLOCS - Tires and Wheels, Controls, Lights and Mirrors, Oil and Other Fluids, Chassis, and Stands What do flaps and fasteners on your riding clothing help do? - Seal out the wind Where do crashes mostly occur? - Curves and Intersections Risk Offset - the difference between the risks you take and the skill you possess When is there increased risk? - When following too closely or riding too close to stationary objects. Never ride too fast for conditions What does presentation mean in the context of lane position? - Use a lane position where others have a better chance to see you, especially as you approach a line of oncoming cars Visual Lead Times and Distance - 2 second following distance, 4 second urgent time and distance, and 12 second anticipation time and distance Why to say what if to reduce risk - to be able to respond smoothly instead of needing to instantly react. What is SEE? - Search, Evaluate, Execute How many escape paths should you have? - It is best to have more than one escape path open so you don't get trapped (at least 2)
What are the three types of curves - Constant Radius, Increasing Radius, Decreasing Radius What is counterweight? - Permits more motorcycle lean for a tighter turning radius. Turn your head where you want to go. Lean the bike but not your body at slow speeds What is overriding your headlight? - When your total stopping distance exceeds the distance your light beam shows. What is threshold braking? - The ability to use the brakes fully without producing a skid. What do you do when crossing ice/snow patches or mud, moss and algae? - Clutch in, coast through to the end of the patch with no braking or rapid turning. How to adjust your bike for passengers - Look in your owner's manual for proper suspension settings and tire pressure. How to handle heavy wind/crosswinds - Steer into it just like you would in a car, countersteer. (Adjust the input on your handgrips) What is a drink? - 12 ounce can of beer, or one shot of liquor, or 5 ounce glass of wine
