I've got a couple of decent books I'd like to add to the list:
I. Proficient Motorcycling - by David L Hough
II. More Proficient Motorcycling - again by DL Hough
III. Sport Riding Techniques - by Nick Ienatsch
IV. Total Control - by Lee Parks
I + II are more about general on road riding, advice for different conditions, picking lines/apexing, braking etc. MPM is not really that much different to PM. The binding on PM is very weak and the pages at the front of the book tend to fall away from the spine quite easily.
III + IV cover similar content to each other, focusing more on street/sport riding techniques. Both talk at great length about line selection, apexing, bike design, countersteering, braking, trailing/maintenance throttle etc. SRT has numerous references to track riding also.
I recommend all four. Have a look on amazon.com for reader reviews. If you've got the money, get them all. <i></i>
