One more thing...I have them all and have read them all.  I learned more in one instructional track day than those books.

If you want to learn street survival skills they are the same ones you use while driving.  Yes believe it or not.

It depends on the person and the instructor.  You probably wouldn't have gotten near so much out of the track day if the reading hadn't prepared you.
For me, I prefer to (and do better by) read something, practice it, re-read it and practice more and then go on to the next 'lesson'.  I've had instructors (non-M/C) that jamb things at you. If you don't get it, they just jamb harder.
I do admit that with most things, you can only go so far by yourself and immediate, constructive feedback is very valuable.

Sorry I'm not going to read your link. If it contradicts what I'm saying it's not worth reading and if it confirms it what's the point?

I'm serious.

Even if your riding level is above it, there might still be something you can learn from it, or something you find interesting, or some tidbit you can pass on to a fellow rider.
