This is the high-performance tale of what was undoubtedly the fastest,loosest era in automotive history. Through the 1960s and into the 1970s,America’s carmakers fought an unbridled war for street supremacy.The warriors ranged from light and agile Z/28 Camaros and Boss 302Mustangs to big-block brutes like the 440 Road Runner and Stage I455 Buick GS. A few of these boulevard brawlers were closing on 500horsepower before the insurance lobby, Ralph Nader, OPEC, and variousgovernmental agencies conspired to stop the madness. Muscle cars all butdisappeared by 1974, with only a few anemic models soldiering throughthe 1980s. But by the 1990s, thanks to vastly improved engine technology,muscle cars were back with a vengeance. Motor City Muscle traces the fullhistory right up to today’s new Mustang, Camaro, and Challenger.

Until the 1970s, North America was considered a backwater with respectto world championship–level motorcycle road racing, a place whereprovincial hillbillies rode around in circles on tracks made of dirt. Thatall changed when Kenny Roberts exploded onto the Grand Prix racingscene and became the first American to win the world championshipin motorcycle road racing’s premier class. Roberts’ success launchedan era of American dominance that lasted for nearly 20 years and stillechoes through the annals of the sport. This is the story of the legendaryAmerican riders, including Freddie Spencer, Eddie Lawson, WayneRainey, Kevin Schwantz, Kenny Roberts Jr., and the most recentAmerican world champion, Nicky Hayden.

Far too often the trip of a lifetime turns into an unmitigateddisaster, leading to expensive breakdowns, arrests, lost wages, brokenlimbs, death, and even, on more than one occasion, divorce. Most peoplewho travel aboard motorcycles have learned these lessons the hard way, ifthey’ve survived long enough, but now readers of the Motorcycle TouringBible can learn an easier way; they can learn from author Fred Rau’smistakes rather than through the school of hard knocks.

Most ofthe Harley-Davidson motorcycles built over the past 25 years are still onthe road, which means there are many, many used Harleys bought andsold every day. This book provides a practical guide to purchasing themost common Harleys on the used-bike market: the aluminum-enginemachines built since 1984, the Evolutions (Sportsters and Big Twins),Twin Cams, and liquid-cooled Revolution bikes (the V-Rod models).Harley-Davidson Buyer’s Guide provides everything a reader needs to know to purchase a sound, reliable, enjoyable Harley-Davidson Big Twin motorcycle.

People who ride touring motorcycles (referred to as “baggers” becauseof their saddlebags) don’t want to be mistaken for the tens of thousandsof other people riding similar motorcycles, so they go to great lengthsto individualize their machines. But as is obvious from the legions ofhideously butchered “custom baggers” roaming the nation’s highways andbyways, the vast majority of people customizing their bikes could use a bitof guidance. Here it is. This book provides the reader with a step-by-stepmanual for building an affordable and stunning custom touring bike. Itcovers upgrading major systems, such as engine, suspension, luggage, andrider accommodations, and also focuses on modifying the appearance of themotorcycle.
