From the publisher:
Modern sportbikes offer superbike performance, but demand superior riding skills to match. In this book, Nick Ienatsch—former AMA racing champion, internationally known moto journalist, and lead instructor at Freddie Spencer’s High Performance Riding School—leads motorcyclists through the tight learning curves toward mastering the subtleties of riding well on street and track.
Starting with the basics of braking and steering, Ienatsch reveals the skills that can transform average riders into “on-board engineers” who can make appropriate use of the substantial speed, turning, and braking power of today’s sportbikes. The book includes chapters on the various ways a rider can influence steering, advanced throttle control, the fine points of trail braking, and picking out the right line in a turn. Practice drills to help build your own skills make this a practical how-to guide, while Ienatsch’s bench racing tales entertain as well as inform. Full-color stop-action photos catch expert riders in action on the latest sportbikes at the limits of traction (and beyond—for educational purposes only, of course), showing the dos and don’ts of sport riding.
Ienatsch offers sage advice on how to use the track to test and stretch your riding skills and explore the upper edges of your bike’s performance in a controlled environment, as well as serving up some urban survival basics and life-preserving tips on group riding. As the author of the popular articles on "The Pace" Ienatsch is a proponent of having fun responsibly, taking reasonable precautions to manage risk in order to return for more sport riding on another day.
While Ienatsch focuses on the intermediate rider looking to get the most out of his or her high-performance sportbike, his advice is basic enough to be within reach of beginning riders. Sportbike Riding Techniques is a valuable addition to the bookshelf of any serious motorcyclist.
““I believe in rider training and riding technology at all levels, whether you’re racing for the MotoGP World Championship or just enjoying a weekend ride. I know Nick has been writing about riding technique in the magazines for years, and I wholly endorse this book.” —Kenny Roberts, three-time Grand Prix champion and leader of MotoGP’s Team Roberts.
