REVIEWS:

This informative book covers the entire spectrum of sportbike projects and is the perfect workshop companion for beginner, intermediate, and advanced riders. Sportbikes are the best-selling motorcycle in the world, and they are also the most modified. The vigorous riding that most of these bikes are subject to lends itself to project after project, with bodywork being front and center. Written by a formidable sportbike expert, 101 Sportbike Performance Projects is an invaluable reference for riders of all levels of interest and mechanical skill and takes readers step-by-step through the most important and popular modifications.

Just what I was looking for.

I was looking for a book that was geared toward the sport bike set that included general maintenance and some projects that aren't out of reach of the mediocre mechanic. I don't think there is a perfect book out there for any one enthusiast, but I feel this one is general enough to keep you on track, avoid a few pitfalls, and give you enough confidence to save you untold money in the long run.

Full of ideas and inspiration

I purchased this book along with Sportbike Performance Handbook (Motorbooks Workshop). This book (101 Sportbike Performance Projects) is a much simpler book but one I find myself going back to time and again. It is full of easy how-tos for things I have been thinking about doing to my bike for ages but didn't really know where to start.

Since reading this book I have had the confidence to completely disassemble my forks and install new springs and valves. I also have a list of things to try next. It is written to cover all sportbikes so will need to be read alongside your bikes specific manual. If you love your bike and have always wanted to muck around on it in the garage on wet days or start improving the handling etc., get this book.

Great reference for your motorcycling library

This is a nice book to complement your owners manual. I've already gotten my money's worth after completing two of the projects: bleeding the brakes and flushing the radiator. While this is basic maintenance, the owners manual doesn't really detail either of these projects (or recommends that you get the dealer to do it, which really isn't necessary because the author does a good job of describing the tasks). I also like that many of the projects are for mods you would make to a "track" bike, like safety wiring and some of the advanced suspension descriptions. Nice book, highly recommended for your library of motorcycle literature.

Literate++ BikeTech Baedeker

Mr. Brasfield has succeded in writing an encyclopedia of 21st-century sportbike technology with both linguistic aplomb and humor. 'Geared' toward the in-line fours, most every project and comment has some application for other configurations as well (like my '00 SuperHawk, e.g.). The mods go way beyond anything I'd fiddle with since: a)I'm 58 and have five machines to tworple with, and; b)the VTR is already too danged fast and hurts my wrists after 30 minutes. Although no substitute for a shop manual (as the author concedes), the tips and photos are most appropriate throughout. Just order it.

Useful

I read this book cover to cover, and remained interested throughout.

It covers a wide variety of topics - just about everything you want, and a few you don't, including how to straighten a wheel (simple answer - get someone else to do it).

New Ford S-Max Concept at Frankfurt Motor Show

Wed, 28 Aug 2013

The New Ford S-Max Concept (pictured) will debut at Frankfurt Ford’s sporty take on the Galaxy – the Ford S-Max – has been with us since 2006, so it’s time for a change. But with Ford in Europe not having the best of times and the new Ford Mondeo not expected to arrive until 2014, the all new S-Max – which will have underpinnings from the new Mondeo – won’t be arriving until 2015. But in the absence of anything new to show at Frankfurt, Ford has put together a Concept version of the new S-Max to try and show Europe it really does have new stuff on the way.

Range Rover Sport claims desert crossing record

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

The last couple months have seen a number of cross-country record attempts, but here's one we didn't see coming, and frankly couldn't imagine taking place. But Land Rover claims to have broken the record for crossing Saudi Arabia's 'Empty Quarter,' starting at Wadi Adda Wasir in Saudi Arabia, and traveling east across the desert to the United Arab Emirates border. The 'Empty Quarter' is known to be one of the harshest and most challenging environments on the planet, and is actually the largest sand desert in the world and the second largest desert overall after the Sahara.

Fri, 30 May 2014

This year's Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este took place over the weekend of 23-35 May. Bathed in spring sunshine, the lawns of the Grand Hotel Villa d'Este played host to the annual gathering of 50 of the world's finest classic and concept cars, and 35 motorbikes. Sadly, clashing commitments meant that CDN couldn't jet down to Lake Como this year.
