Publisher's Summary

NHTSA studies show that nearly half of all motorcycle fatalities are caused by rider error—and the numbers aren't getting any better. The training isn't working. The current motorcycle skills books aren't working. We need a fresh approach to helping riders NOT crash. This book is that.

David Mixson, author of the Motorcycle Smarts book series (and NASA engineer), debunks the myth that crashing is a matter of fate by explaining the most important topics that other motorcycle mega books gloss over.

In this book, you'll find one of the most in-depth, simple to understand explanations of lowside and highside crashes that exist—anywhere. Riders die every day in these rider-induced crashes—and it doesn't have to be this way.

Mastering the art of riding a motorcycle well is about understanding and overcoming rider fear. It's about having the head knowledge of how your motorcycle works so you can make it go where you want it to go. It's about understanding why riders crash so you can avoid making the same mistakes.

Helps you make smarter decisions

Motorcycle Smarts is a great source of useful information. The author David Mixson has a talent for breaking down technical concepts into easily understood ideas. David’s description of “high side” & “low side” motorcycle crashes is great. He explains what causes these types of crashes, & more importantly how to prevent them. If you want to enjoy motorcycling more by learning specific actions you can use today that will substantially reduce you having an accident, this book is for you. I've enjoyed discussing this book with fellow riders & it will make a good gift for two wheel loving family & friends
