The annual number of motorcycle rider fatalities in the United
States increased from 2294 in 1998 to 5290 in 2008 (National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 2010). Many multi-vehicle
motorcycle crashes involve right-of-way violations where another
vehicle turns in front of, or crosses the path of an on-coming
motorcycle. Improving the frontal conspicuity of motorcycles with
auxiliary forward lighting may reduce these types of crashes. This
book describes some recent studies sponsored by NHTSA on motorcycle
conspicuity.

Triumph Twins first burst onto the scene in 1938, and continued to
improve up to their demise in the 1980's. This book covers the
restoration of these classic and beloved machines, and is the only
one to do so. In full-colour format, it includes two
start-to-finish assemblies, with sidebars to explain how to
correctly lace a wheel, which metal coatings are correct for which
year, and other valuable information. Written by Triumph
restoration expert Gary Chitwood and well-known how-to author
Timothy Remus, all the projects are practical, clearly explained,
and fully illustrated - including the disassembly and restoration
of both a Bonneville 1963 and a Bonneville 1969, in complete
step-by-step stages with full illustrations, plus the overhaul and
assembly of an engine for the 1969 model. It may be good to have a
book that explains how to install a wheel in a frame, but how much
better is it when this is shown as well in full colour - the wheel
being slipped up between the fork legs and the axle sliding through
the fork and into the hub. With over 400 colour photos, this book
offers 144 pages of hard-core how-to help for anyone who wants to
repair or restore their own Triumph twin.

the R50, R50S, R60 and R69S twin cylinder motorcycles. It also
includes the supplement issued by the factory for the USA versions

technical data, tolerances and fits and all of the expected data
from a factory publication for the repair and overhaul of all major
and minor mechanical and electrical components, making it an
invaluable resource for collectors and restorers of these classic
BMW motorcycles. --- There are 257 illustrations and each procedure
is explained in a step-by-step method using an appropriate
illustration. The translation from German to English is, at times,
a little quirky but the profuse illustrations make up for any
difficulty in understanding what needs to be done --- True to the
original, this reproduction is published in four languages,
English, German, French and Spanish making this a universal
publication and required reading for any owner. Out-of-print and
unavailable for many years, this book is highly sought after on the
secondary market and we are pleased to be able to offer this
reproduction as a service to all BMW enthusiasts worldwide.
For fans of Sons of Anarchy, Kristen Ashley, Madeline Sheehan and
Joanna Wylde. New York Times bestselling author Katie Ashley revs
up the danger and sexual tension in her Vicious Cycle biker romance
series. Deacon Malloy's life is dedicated to the Hell's Raiders
motorcycle club. Tough, hard, and fast with his fists, he serves
the group as sergeant at arms. But his devil-may-care approach to
life is thrown for a loop when the five-year-old daughter he never
knew existed lands on the club steps. Alexandra Evans is devoted to
all her students - but there's always been something about Willow
Malloy that tugs at her heart. There's an aura of sadness about
her, a girl in need of all the love Alexandra can give. When Willow
stops coming to school, Alexandra's search leads to a clubhouse
full of bikers...and a father hell-bent on keeping his daughter
always within sight. The moment Deacon sees Alexandra, he has to
have her in his bed - and he's never met a woman yet who couldn't
be persuaded. No matter how attracted she is to Deacon, Alexandra
refuses to be just another conquest. But it's Deacon himself who
could be seduced - into a brighter future for himself, his
daughter, and the woman he's falling for against all odds. Want
more sexy, gritty biker romance? Return to the dangerous and
seductive world of the Hells Raiders motorcycle club in Redemption
Road and Last Mile.
The Triumph 750 is probably the classic British motorcycle that
most people will recognise, whether they are an enthusiast or not.
Their desirability continues to grow, aided by their easy
availability and excellent parts back up. This book is aimed at the
DIY enthusiast interested in their renovation and restoration, and
is fully illustrated with high quality colour images, coupled with
clear and concise text.Following the real life resurrection of a
T140E, with all the work being carried out by the author, the book
shows how to assess wear in all mechanical components, then assists
in deciding the most cost effective method of dealing with it. The
process is dealt with in detail giving the owner the confidence to
carry out their own repairs to a high standard, which will be both
cost effective and satisfying. Brakes, suspension, brightwork and
trim are all also addressed, making this an essential purchase for
all Triumph 750 owners.
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.
