Hough a few days after I bought my first bike. I don't know if it is the best book available, but I'm sure it is a great book, and maybe one of the best for a begginner, since it focus on survival and pleasure, rather than on performance. I'll never know for sure, but I suspect Mr. Hough has saved my bones and/or life more than once.

Though the book was written a long time ago it is still refered to by me when tuning my classic bikes. I'm not trained as an engineer but this book make me look like one. Friend asked where I got my training and i always said 'Phil Irving School' and they nod like they know where the school is.

Both superb books in their own right, and happily about motorcycles too. Chris “Shop Class as Soulcraft”, and Peter Egan’s “Leanings”.
