Rating:  out of 5 stars - Good Book
I got this bike to expand my knowledge of motorcycling. I've been riding for 6 months, now, and have taken 2 closed-course skills classes (MSF Basic and Experienced course), but now winter is approaching and I'm likely to ride less but wanted to do something to keep the skills and mindset fresh.

This book fits the bill quite well. The book targets the social rider or commuter, and describes the skill set and mindset that someone commuting to work, touring, etc. will need, and touches ... Read More



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Very Nice Book......Half Of It Not Relevant To India
This is a good must read book for every motorcyclist newbie or seasoned, who loves to ride and would like to live to tell the tales. It has given me fabulous insights to handling the bike, leaning through corners and very good tips to ride safe. However, in India, where most of you westerners would have small heart attacks just riding around in cars, the tips and lessons on road and traffic is all but irrelevant.

Rating:  out of 5 stars - Lives up to the promise

More experienced riders can benefit by gaining insights before riding off into unfamiliar environments: the urban rider crossing a high mountain pass for the first time or what the farmer can expect passing through the desert. Anyone considering a trek across country should make reading this book part of their preparations. ... Read More



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Great Information, Flawed Presentation
I just bought a new motorcycle after about 18 years out of the saddle and decided I needed to brush up on some riding tactics. I bought "Proficient Motorcycle" by David Hough to give me the refresher I needed.

The book itself is solid stock, with nice thick high quality gloss paper. The cover is even thicker paper that folds inward at the edges to prevent wear as you thumb through the pages. The binding is glued and threaded with fourteen strong stiches... high quality all around.

Rating:  out of 5 stars - Essential reading
This book is essential reading for the new biker. If you have not already figured it out, this book is the bible for motorcycle safety.
