The safest way to carry cargo on a motorcycle is to:
- A.Stack it high behind you to keep weight off the front
- B.Hold it in one hand while riding
- C.Tie it loosely so it can shift in turns
- D.Keep it low and close to the motorcycle's center, secured with bungee nets or cords
Correct answer
D. Keep it low and close to the motorcycle's center, secured with bungee nets or cords
Why
Cargo placed low and close to the center has the least effect on handling, and bungee nets or cords keep it from shifting or falling. Check that nothing can catch in the wheels or block your lights.
