Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great book.
For Begineers who want to understand the basiscs of their machine..

I found it very easy to follow in the most part, not to use on a certain bike, but with a bike manual it will be great help.

I really don't have anything to compare this book to, but I can say that it has been a wonderful introduction to the nuts and bolts of motorcycles. I never really understood what constituted an engine before picking up this book, but now I can talk intelligently on many ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Thorough overview
This book is not and does not try to be a shop manual. What it is, is a well-done primer on the theory behind the various systems in a motorcycle. The chapter on engines was fascinating to me. It explains, in rough historical/chronological order, the development of various engine designs, and how each was a reponse to weaknesses in previous designs and how each one introduced it own problems (while at the same time older designs were tweaked in various ways to minimize problems). The design variations ... Read More
