Motorcycle Basics Techbook Review: Perfect tome of knowledge for older bikes (It's dated 2002). Love it!! - Female. Motorcycle owner and rider for some 45 years. I have a basic understanding of the mechanics of a motorcycle, but I wanted a more in depth education, especially since I have had a "fixer upper" sitting in my garage for almost 15 years. I was a bit hesitant because it is a 2002 book, but hey, my 3 bikes are all older than that!! So it's perfect! Have only gotten through the first two chapters so far, and I am really loving it!! Detailed info presented as if you have no knowledge, yet it's not for dummies. In just the first chapter, there is a nice breakdown of several different types of 2-strokes, and clearly explains the difference between piston port and reed valve. This is precisely the detailed descriptions that I've been looking for. There is no problem with paper quality with my printed copy, as I see some others seem to have had. If you want a detailed education on older bikes, this book is a complete gem! I'd give it ten stars if I could! The ONLY issue with me is that it is European. So some of the language is a little off, and spellings way off, haha. Not a big issue, just annoying. Review: Insightful - I can't recall the number of "Oh, I see.. " I had while reading the book. With each page things are becoming less magical and you start to appreciate simple yet efficient solutions applied in different nodes of the machinery. The content is structured by function and each module is duly explored. You might not need internet at all but it served as a good supplement as to explore modern examples of the concepts. Moto noob yet enthusiastic? Must read then. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #148,295 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #27 in Motorcycle Repair & Performance (Books) #258 in Do-It-Yourself Home Improvement (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (314) | | Dimensions | 10.75 x 0.5 x 8.3 inches | | Edition | 2nd | | ISBN-10 | 0857339982 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0857339980 | | Item Weight | 13.6 ounces | | Language | English | | Part of series | Haynes Techbook | | Print length | 222 pages | | Publication date | February 15, 2015 | | Publisher | Haynes Manuals N.

Moto noob yet enthusiastic? Must read then. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Terrific Motorcycle Technology Intro *by D***P on November 29, 2020* This is a terrific book for anyone wanting to know about the basics (and more) of motorcycle design. The illustrations are plentiful, clear, and well annotated. The text is simple and easy to understand. All systems are covered and many different design options are shown. Having said that, the content is biased toward European and Japanese designs, i.e. I have not seen any Harley content. ## Frequently Bought Together - Motorcycle Basics TechBook (2nd Edition) Haynes Manual (Paperback) - Motorcycle Electrical TechBook Haynes Manual (Paperback) - Motorcycle Fuel Systems TechBook: All carburettor types, along with fuel injection, from the basic theory to practical tuning (Haynes Techbook) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/14271574-motorcycle-basics-techbook](https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/14271574-motorcycle-basics-techbook) --- *Product available on Desertcart Saudi Arabia* *Store origin: SA* *Last updated: 2026-05-03*
