    where to buy total control and twist 2?

    i want to buy these books for a gift but cant find a place that has them,
    i looked on amazon but its about the same to ship the books as it is to buy them.
    the people that have these books where did you buy them from,
    i also tried motomail and they dont stock them.
    cheers for any help.

    I got them off Amazon, combined shipping and cost of books was still about half the price of NZ book shops.
    US sites will gouge you for shipping, so perhaps try UK, or .AU sites?
    At the rise of the hand by Policeman, stop rapidly. Do not pass him by or otherwise disrespect him.

    Check if there is a New Zealand agent for the publishers.

    Twist 2 is published by Code Break and distributed by the California Superbike School Inc, which all sounds a bit incestuous.

    Sport Riding Techniques by Nick Ienatsch might make a nicer looking book as a gift. Publisher is David Bull Publishing, ISBN: 1 893618 07 2

    Good luck

    both titles and all sorts of book goodness at:

    Tha Jandal: Adding another dimension to "rubber side down"

    Jandal [jan-duhl] noun: a mythical entity presiding over bikers
    Jandal [jan-duhl] verb: "to jandal" is to involuntarily separate from one's boik.
    Jandalled [jan-duhlled] past tense - usage: "bro, I've just gone and jandalled it"

    Twist I from Motomail cost me $70 and a 3 week wait. Twist II cost me less than half that from Amazon and turned up within the week. To offset the postage, get some other "hard to get" books and DVDs as well. They are all dirt cheap from Amazon.

    I got Twist of the wrist II from http://www.pageandblackmore.co.nz and can heartily recommend both the book and the site.
