Which type of motorcycles are described as standard-type?

  1. a. Cruiser motorcycles

  2. b. Sport bikes

  3. c. Naked bikes or roadsters with upright riding positions

  4. d. Chopper motorcycles

The correct answer is: c. Naked bikes or roadsters with upright riding positions

Standard-type motorcycles, also known as naked bikes or roadsters, are characterized by their upright riding positions. These bikes typically have a more neutral riding position compared to cruiser motorcycles, sport bikes, or chopper motorcycles. Cruiser motorcycles are known for their laid-back riding position, while sport bikes have a more aggressive forward-leaning position. Chopper motorcycles often have customized and modified frames with extended front forks and a stretched-out appearance.
