As anyone who's been on one knows, big bikes—Harleys, dressers, tourers, cruisers—handle differently than smaller bikes. They have different centers of gravity; they steer more slowly; they put you in a different riding positions; and riding one—especially riding it well—requires different skills. This book is aimed at helping owners of such motorcycles—bikes with big engines, long wheelbases, and a lot of weight—get the best ride out of them. Maximum Control addresses every aspect of riding—steering, positioning, braking, and carrying a passenger or heavy load. With clear information on differences in equipment—brakes, engine, drive system, even tires—this expert, accessible guide provides everything you need to know to handle your bike like a pro. The outcome will be, as promised, Maximum Control—and the ride of your life.
