What is the purpose of a Cornering Circuit in motorcycle training?

  1. To practice high-speed weaving

  2. To test acceleration skills

  3. To build skills and confidence for negotiating curves

  4. To practice riding in a straight line

The correct answer is: To build skills and confidence for negotiating curves

The purpose of a Cornering Circuit in motorcycle training is to help build skills and confidence for navigating curves while riding. Option A, high-speed weaving, is not the main objective of the Cornering Circuit and may even be considered unsafe. Option B, acceleration skills, is also not the main focus of the Cornering Circuit and can be practiced on other parts of the training course. Option D, riding in a straight line, does not directly relate to the specific skill of cornering. Therefore, option C, building skills and confidence for negotiating curves, is the best choice as it accurately describes the main purpose of the Cornering Circuit in motorcycle training.
