The market for used motorcycles is vast
and deep, with many popular motorcycles available for a fraction of what they
cost when new even a few years ago. With a little hard work and know-how, a
restored used bike can become a reliable and stylish commuter vehicle. But
restoring an older motorcycle can be challenging. Often you're dealing with old
technology, parts that are hard to replace, rusty and stubborn bolts, etc.
How to Restore Your Motorcycle walks the reader through the process of
tearing down an old motorcycle and building it back up again. This revised
edition adds color photography throughout, as well as new information covering
bikes and technologies new to the collector realm.
