Presented for the first time in one book, the new-for-1971 range of
BSA and Triumph motorcycles, including the 350cc DOHC twins, the
innovative Ariel 3 moped, projected D18 Bantam, and the X-75
Hurricane, are all detailed in depth, along with related
promotional and racing activities. Photoshoots, the lavish series
of brochures and ads that emanated from them, and projected and
actual colour schemes, are also presented with great accuracy. By
delving into the archives of several historical institutions, a
comprehensive account of the hitherto largely ignored massive
infrastructure investment that took place at BSA's Small Heath
works during much of 1970 is revealed, along with its re-organised
North American setup. Also included is an equally fresh and
detailed appraisal of BSA's financial situation, from the dawn of
the 1970s, until its oblivion in 1973. Besides the many new
revelations, this book contains an impressive collection of
extremely rare factory photographs, many of which have never been
published before, and thought to be the only copies in existence.
Each Haynes manual provides specific and detailed instructions for
performing everything from basic maintenance and troubleshooting to
a complete overhaul of the machine, in this case the Suzuki GS
& DR125, model years 1982 through 2005. Do-it-yourselfers will
find this service and repair manual more comprehensive than the
factory manual, making it an indispensable part of their tool box.
A typical Haynes manual covers: general information;
troubleshooting; lubrication and routine maintenance; engine top
end; engine lower end; primary drive, clutch and external shift
mechanism; transmission and internal shift mechanism; engine
management system; electrical system; wheels, tires and drivebelt;
front suspension and steering; rear suspension; brakes; body, and
color wiring diagrams. An index makes the manual easy to navigate.
After a botched spinal operation left her partially paralysed aged
forty-five, Bizzie Frost found herself unable to enjoy the active
and invigorating lifestyle she loved in Saudi Arabia. That was
until six years later when her husband proposed they buy a
Harley-Davidson. An invitation to join friends on a 2,500km ride to
Oman was irresistible and they bought their Road King - Maridadi.
Travels with Maridadi is an epic account of adventures on a
Harley-Davidson in Saudi Arabia, a country rarely visited by
outsiders during the thirty years that Bizzie called it home.
Riding pillion with her airline captain husband, Frosty, she
travelled thousands of kilometres across the deserts and mountains
of the Kingdom, as well as other Middle Eastern countries. Her
stories and photographs breathe life into the scenery, people and
culture of the Kingdom, and convey the freedom and healing power of
motorcycling on the open road.
The Yamaha FS1-E is a 1970s icon. Introduced in the early '70s, it
became an instant success, giving 16-year-olds their first taste of
motorcycle performance and freedom, and totally overshadowing the
other mopeds available at that time. Many riders had their FS1-E
for one year only before progressing to larger machines. Today,
nostalgia for the youthful exuberance engendered by the 'Fizzie'
has resulted in many ex-owners wanting to recreate their pride and
joy. Most FS1E 's have not endured the test of time well, and very
few good original examples exist. There are, however, plenty of
restorable machines around, and this book guides the do-it-yourself
restorer through the process, from the minefield of initially
finding a machine to restore, to the potential pitfalls of a first
restoration. The bikes featured and photographed for the book
include a seriously neglected 1974 machine, a part restored 1976
model - of dubious type, and a 1975 DX model which arrived as a
pile of bits.
