If your motorcycle begins to wobble, what is the best action to take?

Accelerate rapidly
Close the throttle gradually
Pull over immediately
Shift your weight forward

The correct answer is: Close the throttle gradually

When a motorcycle begins to wobble, the best action to take is to close the throttle gradually. Wobbling can indicate instability, and accelerating rapidly may exacerbate the situation by increasing speed without addressing the underlying problem. Shifting your weight forward can help with balance, but it may not sufficiently resolve the wobble. Additionally, pulling over immediately could potentially lead to loss of control if not done carefully. By gradually closing the throttle, you reduce speed in a controlled manner, allowing you to regain stability and assess the situation safely. This approach enables better control over the motorcycle while minimizing the chance of worsening the wobble.
