Today's motorcycles—sportbikes, tourers, or cruisers—are powerful machines that demand respect and skill to ride well. Based on the lessons taught in Reg Pridmore's popular CLASS Motorcycle Schools, Smooth Riding The Pridmore Way focuses on developing smooth riding through confidence and control.

Pridmore presents key concepts in easy-to-grasp language, with chapters on throttle management, braking, shifting, body positioning, and cornering that will help beginners develop good habits and guide advanced riders to improved performance. Laced with real-world anecdotes from Reg's riding, racing, and teaching career, the book includes strategies for staying out of harm's way on the streets as well as tips on bike and suspension set-up that can help shave lap times on the track. Smooth Riding The Pridmore Way is packed with a lifetime of techniques from one of the great teachers in motorcycling.

A three-time AMA Superbike champion in the 1970s, Pridmore started America's premier track school more than 20 years ago, visiting the nation's top racetracks to hep motorcyclists of all skill levels become faster, smoother, and safer.
