Organized by major sub-assemblies like engines, frames, suspension, wheels and tires, brakes, and bodywork, the text and photo sequences featured here outline repair fundamentals and parts sources, and advise owners when to repair and when to replace. Care is taken to offer advice applicable to U.S., British, German, Italian, and Japanese bikes (the latter of which have previously gone largely ignored) in all four-stroke and classic two-stroke configuirations. An appendix features a resource list and bibliography. Mark Zimmerman, the technical editor of Old Bike Journal, has also written for American Iron and Classic Bike.

This book is a must for any first timer to classic restoration. A great read for even the master mechanic, Mark Zimmerman puts in a few witty comments to keep the reader going.
This is a quick read, but none the less a good one. It does not go into specifics too much, and personally i found that what was in it was elementary to bike building and any bike owner could tell you a lot of whats inside within a couple of minutes. none the less an interesting read if your into bikes.
