5.0 out of 5 stars
Most practical riding book ever,
By Darryl Holmgren "Tex" (Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Total Control: High Performance Street Riding Techniques (Paperback)
I've been riding motorcycle since 1975 and am a licensed road racer, so I knew a couple of things about riding when I bought this book. I expected to learn something, but no more than I learned from other riding technique books. My expectations were way too low. Simply put, this book changed my riding life. No other book contains practical exercises like the ones in "Total Control." Practicing these safe and simple exercises took my riding to a new level. No longer am I fighting my bike in the tight, technical stuff. Now it just does what I want it to. Forget spending $1000s on your suspension and engine--if you want to perform better, buy this book instead.

Even if you think you know it all.....,
By A Customer
This review is from: Total Control: High Performance Street Riding Techniques (Paperback)
It's hard not to sound foolish with superlatives about this book, but all the customer reviews here are absolutely right. I try to read everything about motorcycles I can get my hands on, and have been riding on and off for over 30 years. This book is for the real-world rider, sportbike or cruiser, and it will surprise you even if you think you know-it-all. It has a wealth of good ideas which will change the way you ride forever. Time and money well spent. I can't wait for the snow to melt to try it all out.
4.0 out of 5 stars
Learning to corner.,
This review is from: Total Control: High Performance Street Riding Techniques (Paperback)
This book has two sections that are excellent , the slow speed turns and proper high speed cornering. You will pay hundred's at the track to learn what is taught in this book. A must read before you go to the track for the first time. Well done. Thankyou :) :)
