The photographs collected in this volume accompany us aboard the
new Multistrada V4 produced by Ducati, to discover its spirit which
coincides with the very essence of the journey: 3000 kilometres
travelled along some of the most evocative itineraries in Italy, or
on the coastal roads of Sardinia, on the summit craters in Sicily
and on the snow-capped peaks of Abruzzo. Speed and control, power
and balance of this vehicle - the result of an ambitious project
that represents a turning point not only for the famous Italian
motorcycle manufacturer but for the entire industry - blend with
the landscapes of the surrounding nature, restoring the experience
of a journey with just one ultimate goal: the road itself. Text in
English and Italian.

performance. This book, by the world's most popular suspension
specialist, makes the art and science of suspension tuning
accessible to both professional and weekend mechanics alike. This

their bike handle like a pros, and how any rider - street, dirt, or

highly successful and popular Race Tech Suspension Seminar, and
brings all his knowledge to bear in this book. From clearly
explaining the three forces of suspension to make an accurate
assessment of the state of your suspension; thorough testing
procedures that gauge how well you are improving the suspension and
your riding ability; even the art of chassis geometry for riding
perfectionists, this book employs step-by-step photographs that
show the disassembling and reassembling projects for forks and
shocks for optimum performance. The book even provides detailed
troubleshooting guides for dirt, street, and supermoto - promising
a solution to virtually any handling problem and increased
performance.
A motorcycle should be simple: one engine, two wheels. But, back in
2009, Fred Jourden and Hugo Jezegabel couldn't find any that fitted
their specifications - so they decided to make their own. Leaving
their 9-5 jobs, they set up Blitz Motorcycles in Paris, creating a
garage where they would build only the most beautiful and unique
motorcycles, all hand-designed, custom-built and tailored to the
rider. This was the start of an adventure that would take them from
strength to strength, and from garage to desert to mountain. Blitz
Motorcycles: A Vision of Custom Motorcycles presents first the
vision and then the motorcycles in one strikingly illustrated
volume.

Initially produced as an affordable means of transport in 1947, the
Lambretta became the popular choice of Mods throughout the 50s and
60s and of course the star of the film Quadrophenia. Many thousands
of machines were produced by the Innocenti factory, a
If you can recall the golden era of motorcycle sport then this is
undoubtedly the book for you. Featuring sixteen scramblers and one
and six days trials stars, this is a must read for all who lined
the circuits on muddy Sundays and were glued to their TV sets on
Winter afternoons. Author Andy Westlake is regarded as one of the
UK's leading classic motorcycle journalists and this book is the
perfect follow-up to his two previous books "Off Road Giants"
volumes one and two. In this third volume Andy has once again
managed to track down and interview some of the stars of this
golden era in off road sport, including the former works Greeves
rider and 250cc European champion Dave Bickers, ex works BSA star
John Banks, and has even journeyed to Spain to interview Les
Archer, the man who lifted the European 500cc crown on his works
Norton in the mid 'fifties. A superbly written book brought alive
by many excellent period photographs.
Perhaps the most far-reaching of the many changes wrought on the
military by the First World War was the mechanisation of the armed
services. After many centuries of use by the Army for patrols and
communications, the trusty horse was finally supplanted by the
newfangled motorcycle. This process of mechanisation gathered pace
during the interwar years and in particular for the military
motorcycle between 1925 and 1939. By the outbreak of the Second
World War the motorcycle had become an important part of the
military inventory and was deemed 'suitable for WD (War Department)
requirements'. When it was first published in 1995, this fully
illustrated book was unique in looking at all military motorcycles
of British origin known to have been tested mainly by the
Mechanical Warfare Experimental Establishment (later called the
Mechanisation Experimental Establishment). This edition is fully
revised and updated and includes three new chapters, covering
standard parts, bike markings and paint schemes.

This book deals with the golden age of the British motorcycle,
featuring 100 machines shown in over 200 photographs. It offers a
chronological survey of British motorcycles from the pioneers of
1900 through to the end of the 20th century. It features all the
famous marques, such as AJS, Brough, BSA, Douglas, Greeves, Norton,
Panther, Royal Enfield, Rudge, Scott, Sunbeam, Triumph, Velocette,
Vincent and Zenith. Each entry includes information about the
history of the bike, with specification panels detailing years in
production, engine type, bore and stroke, capacity, gearbox,
brakes, transmission, power, weight and top speed. From the
beginning of the 20th century, the British motorcycle rapidly
gained in reliability and sophistication. It began as a plaything
of the leisured classes, until the war forced it into a utilitarian
role. When peace returned in the 1920s, it was poised to fill a
demand for mass transport, ushering in a golden age. Divided into
four sections - The Pioneers, Vintage Days, The Classic Era, and
Endings and Beginnings - this book profiles 100 of the best-loved
machines that shaped a century of motorcycle design.It includes all
the famous marques, each one illustrated with identification
photographs, making it a book every bike enthusiast will want to
own.
Presenting 17 international customisers and their interpretations
of the BMW R nineT, Soul Fuel reveals a new approach to
customising. A custom bike is, above all: unique. The subculture of
the custom bike community and its trends are of major importance,
not only for the motorcycle's hardware, but also for the software
associated with the lifestyle. Customisers deliberately reject a
digitised and perfected world with something handmade and raw - a
kick start for the imagination of all free spirits. With the market
launch of the BMW R nineT in 2013, the unique Soul Fuel project
started in earnest. Over the course of the nascent cooperation, the
first selected customizers received an R nineT, which they were
able to remodel and modify pursuant to their own vision. To date,
17 customisers have created fascinating customisations of the R
nineT through Soul Fuel. Five additional projects are to follow in
2018. Introducing the bikes completed to date, the book Soul Fuel
is an homage to the "customising attitude" towards life. When we
take a look into the workshops of the most innovative customisers,
we can virtually smell and hear the welding equipment. We
experience the creative process that emerges from custom bikes made
on the basis of the R nineT, up close and personal - like when
musicians cover their favourite song, and in doing so, place their
own distinctive stamp upon it. With full passion and dedication,
Blitz Motorcycles, 46 Works, El Solitario, and others create
exceptional interpretations of an exceptional machine. As unique
and customised as the machines it presents, Soul Fuel boasts
incredible graphics, layout, and fascinating portraits of the
customisers in one innovative, impressively- designed book. Text in
English and German.
