Rating: ***** = a must read
**** = definitely worth reading
*** = had some valuable information
** = didn't have much that I could relate to
* = waste of money ***** Proficient Motorcycling: The Ultimate Guide to Riding Well by David L. Hough A must read – describes most everything you need to know about riding on the street. **** More Proficient Motorcycling : Mastering the Ride by Daivd L. Hough Definitely worth reading – but not quite as good as the original. **** Total Control: High-Performance Street Riding Techniques by Lee Parks Definitely worth reading – has a very good description of the physics of motorcycles, and how the suspension works.
** Soft Science of Road Racing Motorcycles by Keith Code Didn’t have much that I could relate to – it is very much focused on track racing, how to lower your lap times, etc. As a normal street biker, there wasn’t much that I could relate to in my daily riding. |
