5 out of 5 stars Simply put: A must have, not a borrow and read once.   December 24, 2008
This book was a great read. I encourage anyone who loves riding motorcycles especially if you're new to consider buying it. He explains everything so that it is easily understood. He uses real world pictures to illustrate his points. He also brings to your attention situations that I wouldn't have thought of if I had to write a book about riding motorcycles. I'm fairly certain he covered it all. Everytime I hop on my VTX-1300 I think about information I took from his advice and wisdom. In my opinion, this book along with a Motorcycle Safety Course will be two of the wisest and most affordable decisions one could make if you're going to ride.


5 out of 5 stars Motorcycle Safely   December 22, 2008
Far and away the best book on improving your motorcycle riding skills. This is my second copy, after giving away the first. I try to reread this book every year. IT'S THAT GOOD!! The Second Edition has some updated statistics and other information that make it even more worthwhile. The best $25 you will ever spend on your bike.


4 out of 5 stars the voice of experience   December 12, 2008
The author obviously has a tremendous amount of riding experience. This book does an excellent job of passing some of that along to the reader. Novice and seasoned riders alike can learn something from this book.


5 out of 5 stars Great motorcycle book   December 8, 2008
As a motorcycle enthusiast and a carefull rider, i try to manage the risk by knowledge and own quite a few motorcycle books. This book is one of the best, as it manages to present the risks and drill down the statistics, as well as give you the necesary techniques for efficient and safe riding. Of course, it isn't better than a riding course, but it's a very nice supplement, and written well too.
Cheers



4 out of 5 stars A great read that could keep you off the pavement.   December 1, 2008
Recommended by a friend this book contains both basic tips and methods to keep safe while riding. The book explains the science behind riding techniques. I was able to apply lessons on my first ride after reading.
New riders and experienced riders will benifit from this guide.
