The chassis is the foundation for the motorcycle. Thus, picking a chassis, or deciding on any modifications, must be undertaken with care. This book is a guide to frame styles, and quality. Bolted to the chassis are some very important componets. Items like the fork assembly and the shock absorbers. Motorcycles Chassis includes a thorough discussion of how suspension components work and how to pick the best one for your particular motorcycle. The brakes represent the other group of very important components that are bolted to the frame. Again, Motorcycle Chassis analyzes the different types of brakes and offers advice as to which caliper or caliper and rotor combination are the best value for a given bike or style of riding. There are no other books on the market that deal specifically with the chassis of American V-Twin motorcycles. As part of the Advanced Custom Motorcycle series, this book is written for the individual who is either building a custom bike from scratch of modifying an existing Harley-Davidson of V-Twin powered bike.

Don't tell you anything,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: How-To: Advanced Custom Motorcycle Chassis (Paperback)
In the short It's basically just crap, tells you nothing. If you like to look at pictures then it OK but Magazines are 100 times better. Put it in the trash where it belongs or give it someone else after you look at it once.

By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: How-To: Advanced Custom Motorcycle Chassis (Paperback)
Motorcyclists involved in either building a bike from scratch or adding to a factory chassis will appreciate the photo-packed, project-oriented "How To: Advanced Custom Motorcycle Chassis", which discusses upgrades, frames, assembly specs and more. Over 400 color images accompany details on what to buy and how to assemble all kinds of parts, including sidebars of information from industry leaders. A 'must' for any collection catering to motorcycle hobbyists.
