## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect 1st/general manual.
*by S***7 on 26 January 2026*

This is a great book for anyone who is looking to understand how a motorcycle works.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great.
*by K***S on 17 January 2026*

Great read.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very clear informative techbook
*by H***N on 10 March 2021*

Very clear and easy to understand explanations of how different parts of engine and electrical systems work in detail with clearly labelled diagrams. This is not a diy or service manual so no ‘how-to’ chapters. You will need to purchase a motorcycle maintenance manual if that’s what you are aiming for. However, anyone serious about learning in-depth motorcycle mechanics - this is the book for you. Paper quality is very good so ignore any previous comments about that . All in all very pleased with this book and recommend it.
