Contemporary sport bikes accelerate faster, brake harder, and cut through corners deeper than ever before. These technologically advanced motorcycles are exhilarating to ride, but to really get the most out of a motorcycle’s performance capabilities a rider must develop his or her own personal performance. Riders need to take their skills to the next level. Now, in this book written specifically for sport riders, well-known journalist, racer, and riding school instructor Nick Ienatsch provides the tools and techniques to help riders analyze and develop that personal performance. If you’re an experienced rider, Nick will help you hone and perfect your skills, operate controls with even greater finesse, and apply race-proven techniques on the track—as well as on the street. If you’re a beginning rider, Nick will show you how to develop proper skills and safety habits that will add to your motorcycling enjoyment and build your confidence. Whatever your current riding ability, Nick will teach you to safely find the absolute limit of bike and rider.

Summary: Just what I needed
Comment: 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.

Summary: Worst case Scenario
Comment: 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.

Summary: Fantastic Resource and a Fun Read!
Comment: 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.

Summary: Ienatsch 's Sport Riding Techniques
Comment: 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.

Summary: Beginner's bible for the newbie motorcycle rider.
Comment: This is a newbie book. Do not expect any intermediate or advanced tips. With that being said it does reinforce what I have preached but morons have contradicted. Use the rear break, stupid! No listen to me becuase I am faster then I have brains and crash all the time so I must be fast. I am stupid and you grab a fist full of brake and endo like a total loser like I did. Don't ride with idiots in the canyons. Pushing the limits in the canyons does not make you faster it makes you crash. Guys that crash every four months are not fast, only ignorant. This should be in the driver test handbook for all the lemmings following the morons knee draging off the cliffs to the morgue "every" weekend. Get lessons (from pro's not morons) and take it to the track.
