What are the dimensions for the three-wheeled motorcycle slalom test?
2 Answers
Motorcycle slalom test pole spacing varies depending on the type of motorcycle being tested, with different intervals between poles and different margins from the sideline. Taking a two-wheeled motorcycle as an example, the pole spacing for the two-wheeled motorcycle slalom test is 3 meters, and the distance from the pole to the sideline is 1 meter. During the test, you need to ride the motorcycle in an S-shape, going around the poles back and forth. Daily maintenance methods for motorcycles: 1. During the break-in period, keep the motorcycle idle at 100 rpm; 2. Match the motorcycle gear with the corresponding speed; 3. When you need to brake due to an obstacle ahead, release the throttle, step on the rear brake with your right foot, and gently apply the front brake with your right hand; 4. Regularly check the spark plug; 5. When installing a new spark plug, hand-tighten it until it can't be turned anymore, then use a spark plug socket to tighten it an additional quarter to half turn; 6. Regularly lubricate the chain.
I remember when taking the three-wheeled motorcycle test, the dimensions of the cone slalom were key standards. Specifically, the diameter of the cones is generally 30 to 40 centimeters, with a height of about 50 centimeters. The distance between the cones is not uniform—typically, it's 3.5 meters from the start to the first cone, then 5.5 meters to the second cone, and 7 meters to the third cone, forming a gradually changing S-shaped path. The entire course is approximately 12 to 15 meters long and 3 to 4 meters wide. Touching any cone during the test results in an immediate failure, so it's crucial to practice slow turns in an empty area repeatedly, maintaining steady handlebar control. At first, I kept making mistakes, but later I realized the dimensions were designed to test balance and steering precision, not speed. After some trial and error, I passed the test on my first attempt. I recommend renting a training field to familiarize yourself with the layout multiple times—knowing the dimensions well builds confidence, and safe driving relies on solid fundamentals.
