MotorCycle Fundamentals 101 - Volume 1
Author: Douglas Hall

Why? Why buy this book? What separates this from all the other choices? We believe this to be the most well-rounded, straight-forward source of information, for explaining the system fundamentals of a working motorcycle. This material is written for any person who has ever sat in front of a TV and watched one of those bike-building shows and wo... more »ndered if they could do it. It?s for anyone who has thumbed through a catalog or magazine and pondered the thought of building a custom motorcycle. It?s for the individual with the dream of always wanting to build a custom bike without knowing where to start. In short, this text is written for the biker-in-all-of-us. After watching a few TV shows it seems as though an individual would need unlimited funds and resources to create a custom motorcycle; leaving those of us who aren?t rock stars or pro athletes out in the cold. That couldn?t be farther from the truth. It doesn?t have to take a second mortgage to fund a custom build; in fact, a custom motorcycle/chopper can be built for not much more than most off-the-shelf bikes found at dealerships. ?Intimidating? or ?overwhelming? could easily be used to describe the mountain of choices available to the general public when it comes to custom kits and accessories. Many of the components seen on TV can be purchased at stores, dealerships, and online. That includes licensed, custom-crafted parts from Jesse James, Voodoo Choppers, Billy Lane, Paul Yaffe, Chica, and other fine artisans of the motorcycle renaissance. Boiled down, this really means that every possible resource to create a distinctive motorcycle already exists. Combine that with a little knowledge and anyone should be able to assemble a motorcycle that truly reflects their unique style and personality. This book is a culmination of ideas, research, and desire to create a textbook for anyone who has the passion and determination to build that custom motorcycle. This book is organized into sections that describe the major systems of a bike, first in non-technical terminology, followed by greater detail and a list of relevant terms. Illustrations in each section reinforce the written explanations. Designed with a kit builder in mind, this book is not intended to make everyone who reads it a mechanic or motorcycle expert. Nor is it written for only mechanics and motorcycle experts. Anyone with desire to build a motorcycle/chopper should benefit from it.
