Get this book if your new to the motorcycle trade or are just a home mechanic. Its is great, a numskull like me could understand and follow what was being taugh. This book is worth it's weight in gold.

Maybe I should feel guilty; I got the book at a used book shop, and almost immediately loaned it to three of my friends, none of which were 'bike riders at the time. Within three months, each one had bought a bike! I've only been riding a short while, but I've had lots of questions answered by this book. I'm not sure you need to own it, but if you're thinking about getting into motorcycles, getting ahold of a copy of this book could be helpful to you.

This is the best book i have read on motorcycle engineering, it beats all the books recommended on my motorcycle course. It's well laid out and all the diagrams and pictures are faultless. Absolutly brilliant! In all honesty if more books on technical subjects were written like this more students would not end up with grey hairs before understanding what is being taught. Buy it you will not be dissapointed.
