Can I get in trouble for this?

Anyways I through together a whole bunch of questions found on the M1 writing test. Don't use these as a means of thinking you shouldn't read the book.

man I think the MTO questions are exactly the same word-for-word as on the actual MTO tests.

They are word for word..... the suspension questions always threw me off.
 
If your motorcycle starts to wander back and forth while riding over groves, gratings or scraped road surfaces, you should:

Hit the engine kill switch

No??? damn
 
I should probably add more....

How does something become sticky?
 
Some guy wants this so I am bumping it. I added a few too.
 
Hrrm, there were a few on my test that I don't see there, I only remember two in particular because I got them wrong.

One was about having a vehicle come up from behind that looked like it was going to hit you while you were stopped at a stop light and there was a car in front of you. answer was to share the lane with the car in front.

The other was on why we use foot pegs, then had 4 correct answers, but they wanted the most correct answer, which was because it helps maintain balance. This was a out right written test, not a computerized test like I did for my 365 before graduated licensing came in.
 
I did the m1 course having never been on/around a motorcycle or reading the book; got like 3 wrong. If you read the questions very carefully you'll realize that they're mostly based on common sense, or at least you can judge which of the answers are the least likely to be true.... Then again maybe I just got lucky...
 
a cheat sheet for the M1?!! really?!?! if someone actually fails it I think they deserve to pay to retake it... I guessed at all the license suspension questions etc. too and basically as long as you get all the other (common sense) questions right, you pass...
 
ya to be honest, the m1 motorcycle portion was HELLA easy, i just passed yesterday afternoon. HOWEVER, the G1 portion through me for a loop, still passed though.

So here was one question i didnt know:::

if the front tire blows out, put your weight back or forward?
if the rear tire blows out, put your weiht back or forward?

Logically i could see it either way...
front blows, putting weight on the front may cause some serious problems, grinding the rim or whatever i dont know.
Also putting the weight on the rear would take away all your steering ability?

I chose front blow = rear weight
rear blow = front weight...

dont know what i got right or wrong, but i passed.
