For higher speed turns you should lean more than you would at low speed.

• A. Lean less than you would at low speed
• B. Accelerate through the turn
• C. Lean more than you would at low speed
• D. Stay upright

Answer: (C)

In a turn, you balance gravity with the inward (centripetal) force needed to follow the curved path. As speed increases, the outward tendency grows, so you must lean further into the turn to keep the combined force through the tires’ contact patches. Leaning more at higher speeds helps keep the bike's path stable and maintains traction; not leaning enough can cause the tire to lose grip and the bike to wash out. Staying upright or accelerating aggressively through the turn disrupts this balance and reduces control, while a controlled, steady throttle with proper lean keeps you on the intended line.
