Picture this: you're carving through twisty backroads on your latest high-performance motorcycle, feeling every ounce of power under you—but staying completely in control. Modern bikes pack more punch than ever, turning everyday rides into high-stakes thrills that demand razor-sharp skills. That's where Total Control: High Performance Street Riding Techniques, 2nd Edition steps in, your digital guide to transforming from an average rider to a street-savvy pro.
These aren't your grandpa's motorcycles. Superbikes now rival race machines in acceleration, braking, and handling, but streets aren't racetracks. Sudden traffic, uneven pavement, and weather throw curveballs that can overwhelm even experienced riders. Without advanced techniques, that dream ride turns into white-knuckle stress or worse. Lee Parks, a top racer, rider, and instructor, gets it—he's lived it and teaches it.
This Kindle book breaks it all down with crystal-clear instructions. Learn precise braking methods to stop on a dime without locking up, cornering lines that let you lean deeper with confidence, and throttle control for smooth power delivery. High-quality photos capture real-world examples, while diagrams illustrate body position and bike setup. Parks covers survival skills too, like scanning for hazards and quick evasion maneuvers.
Apply these on your commute, weekend canyon runs, or group rides. Riders report feeling the bike communicate better, entering corners faster yet safer, and enjoying rides more because fear's gone. It's not about speed alone—it's competence that keeps you alive and grinning. Whether you're on a sportbike, adventure tourer, or naked streetfighter, these methods adapt.
At around 400 pages of dense, practical wisdom, this 2nd edition updates classics with fresh insights. Download instantly to Kindle—no waiting, searchable text, highlight favorites. If you've outgrown beginner guides, Total Control is your next ride essential. Sharpen your edge today and own the streets responsibly.
