Question: 1 / 50

You know a motorcycle's seat height is appropriate if:

Your feet can reach the ground and support the motorcycle

The correct answer is A because seat height is one of the most important factors when choosing a motorcycle. If the seat height is too high, it will be difficult to balance and control the motorcycle, especially at low speeds. If the seat height is too low, your feet may not reach the ground making it difficult to support the weight of the motorcycle. B, C, and D may also be important factors to consider, but they are not directly related to the appropriateness of a motorcycle's seat height. For example, the handlebars can be adjusted and the engine size can be modified, but the seat height is fixed and cannot be easily changed. Therefore, it is important to ensure that your feet can comfortably reach the ground and support the motorcycle before considering other factors.

The handlebars are easy to reach
