How to Build a Motorcycle leads you through all the key stages -
from initially finding the right project for your skill level, to
sourcing a base bike and safely taking on some full-on
bike-building tasks. With clear, easy-to-follow instructions,
proper advice and specially commissioned step-by-step illustrations
throughout it is an ideal aid to getting your hands oily. Written
by Gary Inman, the co-founder of independent motorcycle magazine
Sideburn, and illustrated by Adi Gilbert who is best known for his
bicycle and motorcycle drawings whose clients include
Harley-Davidson, Guy Martin, Wired magazine, Sideburn magazine and
Nike, this is a must-have for all motorcycle lovers. Read this
book, even dip in and out where relevant. If it makes sense,
schedule some time, clear your mind, pull on some old clothes, grab
your toolbox and get going. The chapters in How to Build a
Motorcycle will tell you how to complete a huge variety of tasks
that will allow even the greenest of novices to get their hands
dirty and start modifying with purpose. If you belong to this camp,
start with some of the low-input, high-reward jobs, such as fitting
bars, swapping the rear shocks or wiring in a new tail light. Even
though these require relatively little work, they'll transform the
look of your bike, and completing them will fill you with
confidence to undertake the more difficult jobs, such as fitting
more modern front forks or even making your own frame. The book
comes with a glossy 32-page section on finished bikes and is a
reference and the perfect gift for all fans, from those who merely
like to tinker, to riders taking on a full build.
