2.0 out of 5 stars Very informative,British terminology ,broad range, December 27, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Motor Cycle Restorer's Workshop Companion (Hardcover)
A bit mis-leading with a motorcycle on the cover, this book deals with tools ,shop procedures, etc., similar to a condensed version of "The Machinists Handbook" Unless you're familier with words like"parifin, spanner, G-clamp" etc.the british terminology can be a bit confusing.Very little motorcycle mechanics exist inside.
