Question 1654 in the bank

What is the connection between the leaning angle and the turning of a motorcycle and the motorcycle’s headlight?

  1. The more a motorcycle is leaned or turned, the more its rider suffers from self-blinding.
  2. When you turn or lean the motorcycle, the strength of its lights decrease due to battery fluid level.
  3. Correct answer: The more the motorcycle is leaned or turned, the more its light beam is diverted from the desired direction of driving.
  4. There is no connection, unless motorcycle maintenance is poor and its light adjustment is impaired.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: The more the motorcycle is leaned or turned, the more its light beam is diverted from the desired direction of driving.

The headlight is mounted on the steering part of the motorcycle and tilts with it, so the beam always points where the front faces. The more you lean or turn, the more the beam drifts away from the path you are about to ride, often leaving the inside of the curve dark. That is why you should slow down before curves at night. Self-blinding and the battery have nothing to do with it.
