Twist of the Wrist is THE BIBLE for the sport bike community. It's been on my night stand, next to my bed, for the past 20 years. The book will make the reader a better rider in all aspects, safety and performance. The most important thing I learned from the reading is looking straight at the horizon and using my peripheral vision to look at everything around me, as opposed to actually looking at everything. I can see a thousand times faster just by looking straight ahead. That little trick in itself saved me uncountable times because you learn to see what others don't.
The second most important to me was the Survival Reactions and chopping the throttle. I've had experienced friends go down from chopping the throttle in a tight turn at Deal's Gap and I learned that, no matter what the circumstances, always continue to roll on the throttle slowly through every turn. It took a LOT of practice to control my SRs (Survival reactions) because it's like being startled, one can't really control it. Or sneezing. After a lot of practice one can slowly begin to learn how to control it.
Because that's how vast majority of accidents are caused from. Jerking the car wheel too quickly because you're startled that someone just swerved into your lane. That "over compensation" now causes the car to slide and spin out of control, resulting in a violent uncontrollable crash. Had the driver learn to control their Survival Reactions, they would have calmly, but quickly, smoothly turned the wheel just the right amount to avoid the oncoming car.
