    • Excellent Book on Motorcycle Basics
Format: Hardcover
I grew up with Haynes manuals for my old gold 1972 CB250 Honda and went on to really appreciate and respect them when I bought a 1974 BMW R75/6. Haynes' manuals have good illustrations and pictures of real (ie dirty and unloved) engine components as well as "after" photographs. They are accurate and do not cut corners or contain ambivalent instructions. They are practical and offer very helpful advice - like "do it this way - otherwise you risk losing the tip of your left middle finger". Compelling. This Haynes manual is really interesting because it shows the progression in technology over time - how new technology overcame problems with previous designs - helpful when you're restoring older machines. ... show more

Format: Hardcover
Good book good reference. Shop manuals are great for how to do repairs but understanding how the part work with each other is how you trouble shoot problems and this has helped me understand how different motorcycle systems work.This is not very useful for specific repairs but a good way to learn how systems work and work with each other so is a great way to learn how to trouble shoot. ... show more

    • Reviewing Haynes' Basic Techbook
Format: Hardcover
For someone new to motorcycling, just coming to realize that riding a bike involves care and feeding, but who never maintained their own car, this book provides an essential overview. Read this book BEFORE reading through your owners manual and repair manual, if you're not already a grease-monkey. It's overview of each aspect of motorcycles is so clearly written, with plenty of detail and specs, that you'll enjoy reading it as much as you do your motorcycle magazines. ... show more

    • Good, not great
Format: Hardcover
Pretty fast read, good overview of motorcycle technology. I especially like how it addresses how different manufacturers approached problems. If you can find this book at a library, get it there first to see if you think it is worth buying.
