Customer Reviews

A good introduction
A good introduction to how a bike works and very basic maintanance procedures. It gets 4 stars mainly because of the cheap price. I think I'll be out-growing it soon: there's not a lot of information here. If you want a more comprehensive book on maintaining a bike, I'd suggest Mark Zimmerman.

Worth every penny
I know very little about motorbikes and am about to do a direct access course. This book is excellent. The pictures are very clear and writing is easy to understand even for a person like myself. There seems to be enough information in there to keep me coming back to the book. I'm very glad I bought it. It's worth every penny.

A fiver well spent!
At just over a fiver this book represents great value for money. It is ideal for riders, especially new ones, who want to gain a rudimentary understanding of bike maintenance + primary components. Clear + concise, with many accompanying photos, it assumes no prior knowledge and doesn't go into such detail that your head will spin. It is a little dated however (published in 1997), but the basic concepts still apply to modern machines.
