The Essential
Guide to Motorcycle Maintenance
(Paperback)
By
Mark Zimmerman
Between the advancements in
motorcycle reliability and the new buyers ability to afford
brand new bikes as their first ride, it would be easy to over
look or even forget about the maintenance manual.
Although it may feel like there are more
checkbook bikers around than the old fashioned
gearhead, at some point in every motorcycle owners
life, there comes an urge to tinker with the ride.
The modern biker is lucky that there's Mark Zimmerman's book,
The Essential Guide to Motorcycle to help with such
moments.
Gone are the days of unclear black and white photographs and
complicated techno-speak associated with your father's
maintenance manual. This book not only has clear,
well-illustrated photos and graphics, but with each chapter
dedicated to a different motorcycle system, the manual is
easily accessible for maintenance needed wheel to wheel.
Subsections detailing current
repair techniques over different versions of the same part
(for example; spoked, magnesium and cast wheels) are all
written in a humorous but helpful way for those both new to
repairs as well as the crustiest of mechanics.
Covering a range of brands and
types of motorcycles, it's truly a universally appealing book
teaching new tricks to even seasoned mechanics, demonstrating
the authors twenty-odd years of knowledge and experience
working on motorcycles.
Even if you've only ever thought
about twisting a bolt on your bike, this book is a must have
for the garage.
