Total Control: High Performance Street Riding TechniquesThis is a great book. It will make you safer, faster and happier. Easy to read and understand with good humor thrown in to keep it fun. It helps refine anyone's riding skills.

This is the first motorcycle instruction book I have read from cover to cover that did not send me to sleep. I would not hesitate to recommend this book to anyone interested in taking their motorcycling to the next level. Lee Parks knowledge of motorcycling is perhaps only surpassed by his mastery of the English language. The techniques described are clear, concise and easy to understand and have already had a positive impact on my riding ability.

I tore through this book (because i couldn't stop reading). His techniques will surely help you to become a better, faster, and safer rider. Tons of great information from Lee Parks. He is truly an expert in the field of motorcycle racing and riding.

If you're just new to riding, this is definitely one route to go about learning about riding. Total Control is an excellent learning resource for beginners. It covers so many topics, many that many newbies don't think about, but are very important for learning to ride. Terrific book, I would recommend it to any new rider. For example, the book covers ergonomics and how to do simple things to improve comfort and performance such as adjusting your levers up front to reduce wrist soreness, as well as adjusting foot rests and levers.

Good pictures of correct and incorrect examples. This is a well written book that covers many aspects of riding and things that affect riding. Lee Parks gives good examples of how to handle yourself on a bike and how the bike will react to things. I'm Glad that I bought this book. He gives detailed examples and instructions on how to improve your overall riding ability for beginners and experienced riders.
