Classic Japanese Motorcycles (Illustrated Buyer's Guide),
This review is from: Classic Japanese Motorcycles (Motorbooks International Illustrated Buyer's Guide) (Paperback)
This book is well written. It is a great reference for someone wanting to know more about old Asian motorbikes. If you are already a huge fan of vintage Japanese bikes, you may well know most of this information. Even so, it is wonderful to have all of it at your fingertips...
