5 out of 5 stars In My Opinion - The Best   July 23, 2008
I have read "Total Control" by Lee Parks "Motorcycling Excellence" by the MSF and the new second edition of "Proficient Motorcycling" by David Hough. All of these books were very good, and each touches on points that others don't hit, so I am glad to have read them all. Nevertheless, if I could give just one book to my son to read and learn from it would be "Sport Riding Techniques. I think that Nick Ienatsch does a superior job in breaking the key components of riding down to their related actions, whether it concern braking, steering, or riding through traffic.


5 out of 5 stars Great book; for beginning riders too!   June 4, 2008
This is a great book that will help improve your riding and smoothness.

This is the second book I read regarding riding techniques. The first book is Pridmore's "Smooth Riding the Pridmore Way" which is an excellent supplement. If you will only read one book, read Nick's Sport Riding Techniques.

Comparing the two, I would say Pridmore's book helps with the mechanical aspects of riding: Braking, shifting, turning, etc. Nick's book tends to be more about the mental game of riding, specifically on the street: Situational awareness, traffic, smoothness...

Both books are valuable, but Nick's book is the better, more valuable read.



5 out of 5 stars Well written, easy to understand, good for beginners as well as advanced riders   May 27, 2008
Nick Ienatsch does a good job of explaining the skills required to ride a motorcycle and how to hone those skills. While it is written for sport bike riders others can benefit too. His explanation of available traction under different situations and maneuvers is crucial to riding a motorcycle and he does a great job of explaining the concept. The illustrations and photos are relevant and well done. I have bought several copies of this book and given to new riders.


4 out of 5 stars good Info   May 20, 2008
This book is more for the advanced rider than for a beginner. It is a good follow up to David Hough's Street Survival.


5 out of 5 stars What a great book and author   April 4, 2008

I loved this book and the technical information it contained. If you can't ride year round then this book ia a reference to dust off your riding before you start the season is a must have.
