A must read November 17, 2008 Micah R. Mcarthur I have read many sportbiking books over the last several years. So far, this is the absolutely the best. I actually read it every winter, becuase there are things that any level rider can pick up. As you progress in your skills, more things about what he writes begin to click and make sense.
Overall, I think this a must read for any sportbike rider, especially if you are new to sportbike riding.
Just what I needed September 23, 2008 Ben Collins (LA, CA) This is great. Well designed, good solid content and very readable. It is just the right balance of technical "how-to" and photos and illustrations. First rate and worth every penny.
Worst case Scenario August 24, 2008 Martin Tsampel (Eleusis, Attiki Greece) 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
Well i say DO NOT buy this or any book from amazon. The courier company (UPS) send it normaly to Athens airport and promptly send it back claiming there was no receiver. They sure know how to save money on fuel i think. Me and my house did not disapear all the sudden and all other parcel services still seem to find me. Was i not home on a midweek morning? Sure not. I was working. Did they leave a note that i have a package? Sure not. Did Amazon reply to my complaint mail? Nope. As a matter of fact they do not seem aware that they did never send me that book neither with what happened to my money. If you dare to order prefer send by normal post and not Courier. The Postman allways will find you. As for me, well i learned to oblige in a normal bookstore the hard way. To Amazon? I give the finger. ..I.
Fantastic Resource and a Fun Read! August 23, 2008 D. This book is a must for any rider. No matter how much one thinks they know, this book will make you better, safer and increase your enjoyment of riding on street. The details included make this worth ten times it's cost. It's very well written with many photos and illustrations. The author put a lot of effort in on this and the result is first class.
Ienatsch 's Sport Riding Techniques August 18, 2008 A. R. Bermo Excellent book. Very well organized with down to earth advise that easily translates from track to street riding techniques. That's perhaps one of the greatest strength's of this book: the reliance on great technique to make riding on the street safer and more fun. The chapter on braking alone is worth the entire book; but, hey, you get lots more between the covers. The writing is clear; the illustrations on point and the photographs first notch. A must for every rider's library.
