Title: Excellent Primer on Riding
Review: A casual remark about motorcycles from my wife sparked an ember of interest in both of us. Soon I was looking for more information on the Internet. Many website kept referring newbie riders to the Motorcycle Safety Foundation. I figured that their motorcycle primer would be a good place to start.The book thoroughly covers the basics - parts of a motorcycle, controls, how to ride, and how to stay safe. Lots of illustrations and photographs make visualization easy and the text is written expressly for those of us with absolutely no experience on a bike.Further chapters try to explain traction dynamics, countersteering, cornering, and street smarts. None of these chapters became too bogged down by the abstract concepts. Again, some nice illustrations did wonders toward explaining traction and center of gravity.Excellent book! I have my bike permit and can't wait to attend an MSF Safety Class and get my license!
