The Vintage Motorcyclists' Workshop (Re-issue)
« on: 25.12. 2012 21:02 »
Hello Folks. I don't know if this is old hat or not but they have republished this fantastic book for under 25 quid! That's a bargain when you consider an original edition going for well over £150 usually! Haynes have done a re-run and it is now hard back! Get yours before this print runs out, shop around and you might get it cheaper? If you are into old Motorcycles, you need this book in your life.

True, it's a great book. The section on rebuilding wheels is worth £25 on its own.

Just received a copy for Christmas, yes agree a must for any body into old bikes, its also an education into engineering, for the untrained. Will be my assistant together with this great forum in keeping my Super Rocket sweet.
