DESCRIPTION:
Following on the instant popularity of Kris Palmer's charming first book with publisher Parker House, he brings us a wealth of personal experience and a multitude of stories from others. Witness the best of show in 'The 2008 Legend of the Motorcycle Concours', arguably now the world's premier show, was 'A 1908 Indian Torpedo Tank Board Track Racer' which had never been restored and was in thoroughly original condition. At the same show, the Elvis Award (for the motorcycle that most embodied the rock and roll theme) went to an unrestored 1923 Norton 16H which huffed and puffed its way on stage! The book focuses on advice on how to live with an unrestored bike plus multiple stories of living examples.. The trend of leaving a motorcycle unrestored is advancing apace - it's almost a cult
Great stuff -- motivated me If you've ever wished that you still owned your first bike or your favorite bike like I do, you need to read this book -- you'll love it. The great stories and cool pics gave me motivation to begin the search for an exact copy of my old bike, and when I do, the tips for preserving the machine and its value will be a great help.
