- Questions are drawn fresh from the full Nevada bank each time.
Sample questions
When may you ride on a Nevada motorcycle instruction permit?
- A Only during daylight hours
- B Any time before midnight
- C Any time, as long as your supervisor is riding with you
- D During daylight and for one hour after sunset
Show answer
A. Only during daylight hours
A Nevada motorcycle instruction permit limits you to riding in daylight hours. Riding in daylight gives a beginner the clearest view of the road and the best chance of being seen by drivers.
You must swerve around an obstacle and also stop. When should you brake?
- A During the swerve, using both brakes
- B During the swerve, using the rear brake only
- C As you press the handgrip to start the swerve
- D Before or after the swerve, never during it
Show answer
D. Before or after the swerve, never during it
Separate braking from swerving: brake before or after the swerve, never while swerving. A swerve needs all of the tires' traction for the quick lean, so adding braking can cause a skid.
How often should you do a T-CLOCS pre-ride inspection?
- A Once a week
- B Once a month
- C Before every ride
- D Only before long trips
Show answer
C. Before every ride
A T-CLOCS inspection should be done before every ride. It takes only a few minutes, and a minor problem that is just an inconvenience on a car can cause a crash on a motorcycle.
About how much of a motorcycle's total stopping power can the front brake provide?
- A About 25%
- B About 50%
- C At least 70%
- D 100%
Show answer
C. At least 70%
The front brake is more powerful and can provide at least 70% of your total stopping power. When you brake, weight shifts forward onto the front tire, giving it more traction to use.
