Which statement best describes ROLL while negotiating a turn?

• A. Roll off the throttle before the turn
• B. Roll the throttle to maintain steady speed
• C. Roll on the throttle to maintain steady speed or gradually accelerate through the turn
• D. Coast through without throttle

Answer: (C)

The main idea here is throttle control to keep the bike balanced and steady through a turn. Rolling on the throttle smoothly as you lean helps maintain a steady speed and keeps the rear wheel loaded, which improves grip and stability. If you roll off before entering, you slow down too much too early and can upset your balance; coasting with no throttle removes the drive and can make the bike feel unstable in the turn. The best approach is to roll on the throttle to maintain steady speed through the turn, and you can even gradually accelerate as you pass the apex and head toward the exit. This smooth input reduces engine braking, maintains stability, and makes the turn safer and smoother.
