A guide for both novice and experienced motorcyclists includes guidelines for selecting and buying a motorcycle, safety tips, maintenance techniques, and a survey of the basic mechanical and electronic systems

From Booklist

From rice-burners to full-dress Harleys, Bennett discusses them all in a book that's not a tribute to the biker lifestyle but a complete examination of buying, maintaining, and riding motorcycles. He starts with a chapter of the pros and cons of owning a bike in the first place, and he includes sections on safe riding and sharing the road that are far longer than the ones on specific makes of cycle--a fact that further distinguishes his book from the usual motorcycle tome. Bennett's attention to detail is laudable--indeed, consider his section on used motorcycle best-buys required reading if you're suddenly possessed by the yen to buy a bike and head out on the highway--so the many with limited expertise and experience in the automotive arts who have taken up motorcycling in recent years will find his book a great help in protecting their investments and maintaining their new toys. If only the last chapter, "A Brief History of Riding," were longer, this would be the perfect motorcycle primer. Mike Tribby
