Traveling by motorcycle has many advantages, for example passing by motorcycle.
Whether in the city or on the highway, passing on a motorcycle is much easier than in another vehicle.
There are two factors that determine this advantage over other vehicles, acceleration and visibility.
Due to the height of our driving position, it is very likely that we will obtain better visibility than the rest of the vehicles, that, when passing on a motorcycle has a great advantage.
It is due to the power-to-weight ratio of a motorcycle, that accelerating and reaching the speed required to overtake a vehicle on a motorcycle is much easier and faster than in a car. This allows a motorcycle to go at the desired speed (within limits), both on the road and in the city, regardless of the traffic load.
However, it is important to take due precautions before passing and to do so with proper technique, always respecting the signs and speed limits.
Before passing a vehicle it is important to be sure that none are coming from the front and that we can leave our lane and return to it without any problem.
You have to check that the line is not continuous, because then most likely we will not have good visibility.
It is also important to warn nearby vehicles of our intentions, that is why we must turn on the light that indicates that the maneuver is going to be carried out.
Acceleration is one of the key points in this maneuver, it may be necessary that we have to lower a speed to achieve greater power by revving the engine more.
Finally, it is important not to stop accelerating until we achieve a good distance between the vehicle passed and us, until then we return to our lane and finish the maneuver.
