The correct answer is: RiderRadar

The purpose of "RiderRadar" for a motorcyclist is to enhance awareness and improve observation skills while riding. RiderRadar focuses on honing a rider’s ability to detect potential hazards and changes in their environment, allowing for better decision-making and increased safety on the road. Understanding the importance of being actively aware of one’s surroundings is essential for safe riding. It encourages riders to constantly scan their environment and anticipate potential risks, which helps in making informed decisions while navigating through traffic or various terrain. The other choices relate to various concepts in motorcycle safety and riding techniques, but they do not specifically highlight the core focus of "RiderRadar" in terms of awareness and hazard detection.
