Excellent Book! June 8, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
As a novice in motorcycles but with skills to do household repairs, I was very interested in learning more about motorcycle internals and repair. Th1s book taught me both - from how a 4-stroke engine works to the internals of a carburetor. I taught me how to repair, tune, and upkeep my motorcycle, in a clear, easy to read book.
Now, it is my favorite bedtime book and I keep re-reading a few pages every night. Can't recommend it highly enough, it's that good.

I found this book both an enjoyable read and a very useful "manual". I have just passed my Motorcycle test and did not really know enough about the mechanical side of it all. This book really helped by taking it right down to the basics in a clear, and above all, enjoyable way. I have loved sitting out on the warm evenings "playing" with my bike and gaining an understanding for things that until now would have just confused me! It is a real proud feeling when you sort something out for yourself. And an even greater feeling to then ride off into a day with nothing but you and your bike....

Just started riding 1.5 yrs. ago, and I wanted to do some basic maintenance on my bike. Zimmerman's book is easy to read and follow; I was able to change my oil, drain and refill the coolant, change the driveshaft oil, and most importantly, save some money. I would recommend it for anyone who knows nothing about bikes and has a desire to tinker.

Great book! Do it yourself and save tons of money! March 14, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
If you are a motorcycle rider but an idiot mechanic like me, this is the book for you. I needed to bleed my front brakes but did not know how. I really felt that I could do it and not pay the cycle shop tons of money. With this book by my side I did it in 30 mins. The book paid for it self with this one repair job, that I completed. Total expense for the parts I bought to bleed the brakes.....50c for a plastic tube.
