If you begin to wobble while riding, what should you do?

Accelerating out of the wobble can be a suitable way to stabilize your motorcycle when you encounter this situation. When you notice a wobble, it often indicates that the motorcycle is not steady. By applying gradual acceleration, you can increase speed which may help to smooth out the motion and allow the bike to regain stability. This technique relies on the principles of balance and momentum, where an increase in speed can counteract the wobbling motion.

It's important to approach this situation calmly, as panicking or making abrupt movements can exacerbate the instability. Properly managing your throttle can help prevent the situation from worsening and supports better control of the motorcycle.

Understanding why pulling off to the side, checking tires, or slowing down immediately might not be the best immediate responses can clarify the choice of accelerating. For instance, pulling off to the side might not be feasible if the wobble occurs in a critical moment or if navigating to the roadside could cause further instability. Similarly, while checking tires is important for overall safety, doing so while experiencing a wobble isn't practical and could prevent you from reacting appropriately to regain control. Slowing down may seem intuitive, but it can sometimes cause more weight transfer and further imbalance, possibly intensifying the wobble rather than stabilizing
