As anyone who has been on one knows big bikes - Harleys, dressers, tourers, cruisers - handle differently to smaller bikes, and for the inexperienced rider the difference can be dramatic and sometimes fatal. This book helps owners and riders of these bikes get the best ride out of them, whether long-distance, s-bends, parking and reversing.

As anyone whos 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.
