  2. Helps stabilize the motorcycle

  3. Worsens the traction of the tires

  4. Is a recommended technique

The correct answer is: Helps stabilize the motorcycle

Accelerating in a curve helps stabilize the motorcycle. By applying gentle throttle while in a curve, the bike becomes more stable due to the transfer of weight to the rear tire, providing more traction and control. This technique is commonly used by experienced riders to maintain control and navigate through curves smoothly.
