Other books cover the same material far better June 15, 2008
Ride Hard, Ride Smart is a well-written, easily digested book that covers a number of techniques to improve your riding. Setting aside the American perspective, this is a good book for UK riders too.
However, other books cover the same material far better.
Motorcycle Roadcraft remain most comprehensive and best book on how to pre-empt the hazards presented by other road users, with a wealth of invaluable tips on everything from cornering to overtaking. Motorcycle Roadcraft offers many valuable tips to new and experienced riders alike.
When it comes to bike handling, either Kenny Roberts' Performance Riding Techniques or Lee Parks' Total Control would offer more comprehensive advice, building on Keith Code's original work. Blue Riband, IAM, RoADAR or OCN accredited riders may find these books compliment their roadcraft.
My recommendation would be to read Motorcycle Roadcraft plus one of Performance Riding Techniques, Total Control or A Twist of the Wrist 2. This combination would cover everything in Ride Hard, Ride Smart and more. Whilst no book is a substitute for advanced training, the right books can speed up learning and deepen knowledge.
