Description
By: Sara Liberte .
For men and women who have the will to service their own bikes and lack only the know-how, this book has it all: basic, easy-to-use information about repairing and maintaining pushrod V-twin motorcycles from someone who really knows the nuts and bolts. Sara Liberte’s primer begins with the fundamentals—from wheel size and tire pressure to knowing your shop manual and the tools you’ll need—then moves on to the basics of maintenance. Changing oil and other fluids, replacing gaskets, gauging normal wear and tear, inspecting chains and belts and adjusting tension: these are just a few of the topics Liberte covers in complete and clear detail.
She also discusses the charging system, battery charging, terminal maintenance, and simple wiring techniques—and, critically, troubleshooting, whether on the road or at the shop.
The book covers:
- Fluid Changes
- Wheel and Tire Replacement
- Battery and Charging System Techniques
- Mechanical Troubleshooting
- Engine Systems Upgrades.
