What is the key focus when negotiating curves on the road?

Maintaining steady throttle when negotiating curves on the road is essential for several reasons. It helps provide stability to the motorcycle, allowing for better control of the bike as you lean into the turn. A steady throttle can also assist in balancing the forces acting on the motorcycle, particularly in managing centrifugal force while leaning. If the throttle is too wide open or fully closed during a curve, it can upset the balance and handling of the bike, which could lead to loss of control.

By keeping a consistent throttle, the rider can also ensure smoother acceleration out of the curve, allowing for a more controlled transition back to straighter sections of the road. It is crucial for safety and performance, enabling the rider to navigate curves effectively without risking a loss of traction or stability.
