Having good forward vision will mean that you can plan ahead for the bend that you are approaching.
There will be clues to the severity of the bend, such as road marking, road signs, hedgerows, lamp posts and so on.
They are all there to see, you just need to learn how to translate them into a plan.
On approach apply the brakes before you arrive at the turning point and not during the corner itself. Never use the front brake whilst the bike is leaning over or cornering.
THROTTLE SENsE
If you need to slow down whilst in the corner, this should be done by closing the throttle and gently applying the rear brake only.
The examiner wants to see you riding at the correct speed before arriving at the corner and not braking during bends.
You should move off slippery road surfaces and sunken manhole covers that may be directly on the line you want to take.
Professional motorcycle training and practice are recommended to help you master cornering.
COUNTER STEERING
Counter steering is a superb way of negotiating corners and must be taught from an early stage of riding.
If you have never heard of it, speak to your instructor.
You must fully understand these skills before taking your Module Two motorcycle test.
