The bevel-drive 860 and 900 was one of the most significant
motorcycles of the late 1970s, providing a unique combination of
power and handling that was unequalled by other motorcycles at the
time. When Italian car stylist Giorgetto Giugiaro penned the 860GT
in 1973, few would have believed it would evolve into one of the
greatest Ducati line-ups of all time. The square-case 860 became
the legendary 900 Super Sport, the Darmah, and eventually the Mike
Hailwood Replica, built to honour Hailwood's spectacular comeback
victory at the Isle of Man in 1978. The square-case Ducati engine
design continued for more than a decade, sustaining the company
through a downturn in the early 1980s. This book covers every
incarnation of this great model, from the first 860 through to the
final Mille. Illustrated with 200 pictures, and including complete
appendices of technical specifications, this book is a must-have
for any lover of fine motorcycles. Ian Falloon brings a wealth of
experience to this book; he is the author of numerous publications
on motorcycles, many of them Ducati, including The Ducati 750
Bible, The Ducati Monster Bible, Ducati 916, and the Ducati Story
(now in it's 6th edition). He has a small collection of classic
sporting motorcycles, including a 1975 Ducati 900 Super Sport.
Vespa and Lambretta remain the two most iconic motor scooter
brands, even four decades after the latter's demise. But what made
them such a European sensation in the postwar era? And why were
they particularly popular in Britain in the 1950s and '60s? Motor
scooter expert Stuart Owen explains the rise of Innocenti's
Lambretta and Piaggio's Vespa, from the wartime ruins of Italy,
through years of plenty as the two manufacturers exploited a ready
market for affordable, economic transport, and then their decline
into more uncertain times as motor cars trespassed on their
success. He also explores the rich history of accessorising and
customising the scooters, their essential role in the mod movement,
and the revival in Vespa's fortunes following the release of the
cult film Quadrophenia.
Remember the smell of Castrol R at a 1960s scramble? Or riding a
1970s trials bike through every type of natural obstacle possible?
If you want to revisit those memories, or relive the competition of
earlier times, this book is for you. Buying, restoring, and riding
classic off-road competition bikes is now something that you can
do!This book gives enthusiasts of classic off-road competition
motorcycles a step-by-step guide to a full restoration. Covering
dismantling the motorcycle and its components, restoring and
sourcing parts, paint spraying, decals and polishing. With chapters
covering engine, frame, forks, fuel, exhaust, seat, brakes and
tyres, you'll see how to take a bike from scratch to a full
rebuild; then on to safe set-up and general maintenance. Includes
chapters focussing specifically on pre-65 and twin shock models.
This extraordinary account of a remarkable journey made in 1933,
through Iraq, Iran and Baluchistan (now part of Pakistan) to India
is packed full of wonder, adventure, determination and love of
travel and motorcycles. But what really sets this book apart are
the wonderful descriptions of the people and cultures, now nearly
forgotten, yet still hugely relevant in today's age: all brought
evocatively to life by the stunning photos from 1933. At that time,
the idea of travelling to India on a motorcycle through the Middle
East was considered impossible; there were often no roads, not even
any paths, and they were attempting to cross the burning deserts in
the middle of August, on a tiny two-stroke motorcycle with barely
enough power for the bike and rider, let alone a pillion passenger!
This book is more than a fantastic adventure; it also offers some
perceptive insights into the peoples, places and cultures of the
time, as well as being full of drama, both personal and mechanical,
as the motorcycle is urged on across the shimmering sands. A true
window on the past - and a book which is definitely a `must have'
for all travel and motorcycle enthusiasts.
This charming book, packed with unique artwork and engaging
photographs, celebrates scooter mania. In a feast of nostalgia, it
takes us through the evolution of the scooter, focusing naturally
on all things Lambretta and Vespa, but also covering plenty of
obscure and eccentric machinery along the way. Scooter enthusiasm
in all its forms receives generous attention, whether as fashion
accessory for fifties movie stars, style-conscious transport choice
for the Mod generation, or object of worship for today's
retro-loving adherents. Quotes in the book such as "The scooters,
clothes and music - an unforgettable time of my life" and
"Exciting, fun and carefree days when anything seemed possible" sum
up the enduring appeal of classic scooters. Anyone afflicted with
the obsession will adore this book.

'The Lawton siblings are as charming as ever, and Presley and
Shot's opposites attract dynamic makes for a passionate, unyielding
union' Publishers Weekly, starred review! From the New York Times
bestselling author of the Marked Men series comes Jay Crownover's
latest steamy and suspenseful romance. Return to Loveless in this
passionate opposites-attract tale where cautious Presley and bad
boy Shot have to find a middle ground, risking their hearts in the
process... 'Crownover delivers the goods' Lori Wilde, New York
Times bestselling author 'Crownover writes cowboys that make you

Foster, New York Times bestselling author An irresistible romance
between a doctor who plays by the rules and the outlaw who breaks
them in order to protect her! Dr Presley Baskin has always lived a
quiet, calm life. Unfortunately, nothing about her life in
Loveless, Texas - especially not the wild, rowdy, and impossibly
close-knit Lawton family who've claimed her - is quiet or calm.
When loner Presley then finds herself roped into patching up local
bad boy Shot Caldwell against her better judgment, she wants
nothing to do with the dangerous, brooding leader of the local
outlaw motorcycle club. But when someone starts stalking her, Shot
is the only person she trusts to help. Plus he owes her one...
Palmer 'Shot' Caldwell has always known his life isn't built for
relationships. At least until shy, secretive Presley reluctantly
pulled a bullet out of him. He's oddly protective of the pretty
doctor, so when she comes to him for help ... and hard-hearted Shot
suddenly realizes there's nothing he wouldn't do to keep her safe.
