Description

By: Bill Stermer .

Whether you’ve never ridden before or are getting back into it after some time off, a little knowledge can make motorcycling on public roads a lot more enjoyable. From the kind of bike to buy to the kind of helmet to wear, from the type of motor oil to use to what you’ll need to pack for a 1000-mile ride, long-time motorcycle journalist Bill Stermer answers your questions in Streetbikes: Everything You Need To Know. It’s like downloading twenty-five years of riding experience directly to your brain.

Nowhere else will you find such a broad spectrum of information about street motorcycles. Stermer begins with the kinds of bikes available, from major manufacturers down to custom builders. He also discusses the various types of engines, features and accessories available. Once you have the information you need to choose the perfect bike, he teaches you how to maintain it. Then, Stermer goes over the modifications you can make to your bike so it truly becomes yours. Finally, he discusses things to do with your bike, from touring to track days, rallies to road strategies. All in all, this is the most complete book on streetbikes available today.

Author Bill Stermer brings an insider's knowledge to the job, and the result is an expert, user-friendly guide to selecting, equipping, understanding, and using a motorcycle-with occasional useful detours into such topics as road food and tunes, security and first aid, staying warm and dry, carrying laptops or cameras, and shipping your bike.
