About this deal

The stories are all different, but all celebrate the joy of exploring on two wheels. The format makes it easy to dip in and out, mixing favourite writers with the ones you don’t know. It’s the perfect way to discover new authors – each chapter ends with more information about their travels, if you want to learn more.

your vehicle is registered abroad, including the Channel Islands (Jersey and Guernsey), Isle of Man or Ireland Jupiter’s Travels was first published in 1979 and has ever since been considered as a very influential book. Since the first appearance of the book, many people have been inspired by it, including well-known celebrities such as Ewan McGregor (young Obi Wan Kenobi in the Star Wars franchise). We’ll see a book by McGregor next. Other celebrities were inspired to document their adventures on film. No motorcycle book list would be complete without this cult classic! This book is the narration of a motorcycle trip between father and son. Despite the title, this fascinating book is more about life philosophy than motorcycle maintenance. Striking galleries to showcase the key motorcycles of each period, along with their specifications and distinctive features. Motorcycle Handling and Chassis Design by Tony Foale Tony is (in my opinion) a legend in the field of chassis design. He seems to have been working on making bikes handle since before most of us were born.There are stories here covering almost every imaginable corner of the globe, from a distinguished cast of writers including Geoff Hill, EmmaLucy Cole, Tiffany Coates, Tim and Marisa Notiers and more. It’s pretty much a Who’s Who of overlanding. Motorcycle Tuning – Chassis by John Robinson This is a great book for the racers, as the focus really is making motorcycles go fast around corners. If you have a race bike, or are building one, I’d recommend you add it to your collection. Building your motorcycle library should start off with a solid foundation of educational books — and Total Control by Lee Parks is the perfect way to do that! Total Control is the next step up in street riding skills, and helps riders navigate the ins and outs of high-performance street riding. A Psychologist Explains the Motorcyclist’s Mind and the Love Affair between Rider, Bike, and Road.” Why We Ride is one of the most unique motorcycle books you can buy. In it, Dr. Barns explores both sports psychology and psychoanalysis of the riding experience. A master storyteller, Dr. Barns uses his 20+ years of experience as a columnist for Motorcycle Consumer News to create compelling stories and helpful insights. We often hear about the dangers of riding, but there’s a reason we’re willing to take the risk. Riding a motorcycle can create some of the best memories of a lifetime — or some of the worst if we’re not prepared!

Proficient Motorcycling provides readers the appropriate action for handling a motorcycle for almost every road danger and challeng. This is a well-thought out book that provides basic knowledge on how to ride a motorcycle safely and efficiently that every novice motorcyclist should read. Proficient Motorcycling was first published in the year 2000. Lindemann was the great Cycle magazine’s associate editor from 1982 to 1987. He is definitely a passionate motorcycle enthusiast and is very proficient in both dirt bikes and street bikes. In fact, his notes have casually indicated that he had ridden more than 750 machines on 4 continents. This book is surely a great read for motorcycle hobbyists and enthusiasts.Other useful additions Based on my experience with the Haynes Techbooks listed above, I would have no hesitation in recommending the rest of the series. If you bought these, you would have a solid set of reference material to help your custom motorcycle project. If you want to see the classic bikes of BMW, this book is definitely the best book to buy. The classic bikes portrayed in this book range from pre-World War II BMWs to the present. It includes the R5, the military R12, the R75M, the R69S, and many more. I’d still consider it an essential reference, since any custom bike will require some electrical modification. Heaps of condensed info for a relatively small outlay. This book covers all the bike families like those of sid-valve machines, the overhead-valve performance bikes, the Airheads and Oilheads of the postwar, the four and six-cylinder touring bikes, and others. All in all, this book handily encapsulates a century of motorcycling evolution and excellence. It also showcases the relentless quest of BMW for perfecting the motorbike. Motorcycle Fuel Systems Techbook by John Robinson Having found the Haynes Welding Manual so good, I felt comfortable buying their Fuel Systems Techbook, and I’m glad I did.
