19. Motorcycles must have all of the following, except:

Fenders on all wheels.

A minimum of one brake.

A minimum of one headlight, but no more than three headlights.

Green-colored turn signals.

In Oregon, motorcycles are required to have between one and three white headlights; at least one red taillight; one white license plate light; at least one red brake light; amber turn signal lights (if the motorcycle was built after 1972); a red reflector on the rear; at least one rearview mirror; a horn; fenders on all wheels; at least one brake; and an exhaust system in good working order. All lighting must be U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT)-compliant.

20. When crossing angled railroad tracks, it is usually safest to approach the tracks:

By proceeding straight within your lane.

At a 45-degree angle.

At a 90-degree angle.

At a fast speed.

In general, it is safest to simply proceed straight in your lane when crossing angled railroad tracks. Turning to approach tracks at a right angle can be dangerous because it may send you traveling into another lane.

21. As an operator, you should prepare a passenger to ride by instructing them to do each of the following, except:

Get on the motorcycle after the engine has been started.

Sit as far forward as possible.

Maintain a large space between themselves and you.

Keep their legs away from the muffler and chains.

Before beginning a ride, you should ask your passenger to mount the motorcycle only after the engine has been started. They should sit as far forward as they can without crowding you and hold onto the motorcycle's passenger handholds or onto your waist, hips, or belt. They should keep their legs away from the muffler, chains, and other moving parts.

22. Maximum front-line braking is accomplished by:

Using the rear brake only.

Using the front brake only.

Using both brakes.

Using the rear brake while downshifting.

Maximum straight-line braking is accomplished by fully applying both the front and rear brakes without locking either wheel. You should always use both brakes every time you slow or stop.

23. When riding in a group, you should:

Never use a staggered formation.

Place inexperienced riders at the back of the group.

Not use your mirrors.

Not tailgate other riders within the group.

When riding in a group, it is generally best to use a staggered formation. Use your mirrors periodically to check on riders behind you. Both the lead and sweep riders should be experienced motorcyclists who know group riding procedures well. Maintain proper space cushions within the group of riders.

24. The middle portion of the lane usually contains an oily strip. You should:

Try to avoid the oily strip when it is raining.

Ride only on the oily strip, as it provides increased traction.

Avoid the entire center portion of the lane.

Not worry about oil or other items in a lane.

Oily drippings from cars and trucks build up in the center of each lane. Unless the road is wet, this strip usually still provides enough traction more a motorcycle to operate safely. The strip is generally narrow enough that you can ride to either side of it and still be in the center portion of the lane.

25. During the day, your headlight should:

Not be used.

Be used on its high beam setting.

Be used on its low beam setting.

Alternate between high beam and low beam settings.

Using your high beam headlight during the day increases the likelihood that other drivers will see you. Use your high beam headlight any time you are not riding behind or approaching other vehicles.
