1. Show where you will check the oil level in the engine.
The oil level in the engine is checked by looking through the glass near the crankcase or using a dipstick.
2. Tell me how you will check that the oil level in the engine is sufficient.
The motorcycle must be standing straight (not tilted). Wipe the oil off the dipstick with a rag, insert the dipstick into the oil and pull it out again.
The oil level should be between the MIN and MAX marks. If we look through the glass, it should show the oil level between the MIN and MAX marks.
3. Show where the brake fluid reservoir (tank) is located.
The front brake fluid reservoir (reservoir) is located near the front brake lever.
The rear brake fluid reservoir (reservoir) is located under the motorcycle seat.
4. Tell me how you will check that the brake fluid level is sufficient for safe driving.
The liquid level can be seen through the transparent wall of the tank - the level must be between the MIN and MAX marks.
5. Tell us how you will check the condition of the drive chain (or other type of transmission components).
When turning the rear wheel, the chain must lie evenly on the sprocket, all chain links must move freely.
The stretch of the chain is checked by measuring the length between the specified number of links.
6. Tell me how you will check that the air pressure in your tires is sufficient for safe driving.
The air pressure in the tires is checked with a manometer.
By comparing the readings with the value recommended by the manufacturer, you will know if the air pressure in the tires is sufficient for safe driving.
7. Tell me how you will check that the tire tread depth is sufficient for safe driving.
Tire tread depth can be measured with a caliper or a special tool.
The tire tread has indicators showing the minimum permissible depth.
A minimum depth of 0.8 mm is allowed.
8. Tell how you will check whether the general condition of the tires is suitable for safe driving.
Inspect the tires for cracks, lumps, cuts or other damage. The depth of the tread pattern must correspond to the permissible minimum of 0.8 mm, the wear of the tire must be uniform.
9. Tell how you will check whether the general condition of the brake elements is suitable for safe driving.
The condition of the brake elements can be checked by making sure that the brake pedal moves smoothly and without resistance, checking the level and color of the brake fluid, visually assessing the brake discs and pads, and checking that the brake lights are working correctly. 
10. Show how you will check if the brakes are working.
Move the motorcycle with the brakes applied. The brake lever must not reach the steering wheel when depressed. The stroke of the brake pedal and the handle must not be too soft.
11. Show how you will check whether the steering wheel moves freely.
After sitting on the motorcycle, turn the steering wheel fully to the left and right several times. Then, after pressing the front brake, move the motorcycle and check if the steering wheel does not wobble.
When turning, the steering wheel should turn easily, not wobble or jam.
12. Show how you will check whether the lights work or whether the reflectors are clean.
After starting the engine, turn on the lights and check whether the front light and the rear light are on. Switch to high beams - and repeat.
Visually inspect whether the reflectors are clean.
13. Tell or show how you will check that the warning horn is working.
A beep should sound when the buzzer button is pressed. Some motorcycles require the ignition to be turned on first.
14. Show how you will check if the turn signals are working.
The ignition must be on for the turn signals to work. After alternating the turn signals, go around the motorcycle and check that the turn signals on both sides are working.
