I just finished reading the book Proficient Motorcycling.  I checked it out again so I can reread it.  It's a very good book.  I highly suggest everyone read it.  Ride safe my friends.

Bought a used copy myself a couple months back. Lots of great information. I find it's best to concentrate on only a single section at a time, otherwise you'll overwhelm yourself out on a ride.

Not unless it's a picture book, with models in bikinis (or less) on every page. Otherwise, no one would ever use it for anything other than to level a table leg.

"More Proficient Motorcycling" is also worth a read.

As well, I recommend "Sport Riding Techniques" by Nick Ienatsch & "Total Control" by Lee Parks.   Both of these are aimed at the spirited street rider, but are very worthwhile reads even if you never ride very hard.
If you can't be a good example, at least try to be a horrible reminder.
