Perfect tome of knowledge for older bikes (It's dated 2002). Love it!!
Female. Motorcycle owner and rider for some 45 years. I have a basic understanding of the mechanics of a motorcycle, but I wanted a more in depth education, especially since I have had a "fixer upper" sitting in my garage for almost 15 years. I was a bit hesitant because it is a 2002 book, but hey, my 3 bikes are all older than that!! So it's perfect! Have only gotten through the first two chapters so far, and I am really loving it!! Detailed info presented as if you have no knowledge, yet it's not for dummies. In just the first chapter, there is a nice breakdown of several different types of 2-strokes, and clearly explains the difference between piston port and reed valve. This is precisely the detailed descriptions that I've been looking for. There is no problem with paper quality with my printed copy, as I see some others seem to have had. If you want a detailed education on older bikes, this book is a complete gem! I'd give it ten stars if I could! The ONLY issue with me is that it is European. So some of the language is a little off, and spellings way off, haha. Not a big issue, just annoying.

Very good book.
This book is very good. Well detailed. For someone who doesn't know too much about motorcycles sometimes its a little bit hard to understand things. But, watching some videos on youtube to help with the read, its possible to get a rich knowledge. Im happy with it. The quality of the pages are not the best one, but its not something that is a problem in general. I recommend the book if you want to get serious knowledge about the main components of a motorcycle.

Beautifully explained, easier to understand and hard to take eyes off the book
Books about bikes are rare and books about a bike's working is rarer still. Haynes manual is one of the best books you can find to either brush up ur knowledge or get a fair idea of how the mechanics in bikes work. Very useful for someone passionate about bikes... Cheers
