How should cargo be carried on a motorcycle?
- A.Stacked high behind you and left loose
- B.Kept low and forward, balanced, and secured with bungee nets or cords
- C.Hung from the handlebars
- D.Carried in one hand while riding
Correct answer
B. Kept low and forward, balanced, and secured with bungee nets or cords
Why
Low, forward, well-secured cargo has the least effect on handling and is less likely to shift or fall off. Check bungee nets and cords regularly, and keep straps away from wheels and the chain.
