"Lee Parks does an exceptional job of describing the sometimes complex factors in motorcycle handling in a way that anyone can comprehend.
Total Control is broken down into chapters on various subjects: Physics, Traction, Braking, Slow Speed Handling, Riding with a passenger, etc. Each section has a few well explained drills that can be set up in a parking lot and used to improve particular skills. Excellent color photographs and diagrams complement the well written text.
Park's book would be beneficial to any motorcyclist looking to improve their skills and safety on the street or the track. And all though it seems to cater more to the sport bike crowd, cruisers follow the same physics and so this book can be benecial to cruiser riders as well."
"Total Control by Lee Parks does a very good job of explaining advanced motorcycle riding techniques and how to apply these techniques to improve your riding skill whether on the street or on the track. The book is filled with usefull information and does not skimp on explainng the physics of motorcycles. There are lots of good photos illustrating exactly what the author is talking about. Parks also gives a lot of practical riding exercises that can be done in a empty parking lot with some plastic cones to help riders practice the skills discussed in the book. Very cool; I highly recommend it."
