Motorcycle Engineering by P. E. Irving,Floyd Clymer Pdf

328 pages, 186 black & white illustrations, size 5.5 x 8.5 inches. This is a faithful reproduction of the 1962 Floyd Clymer U.S.A. Edition of the same title. While the primary focus of this publication utilizes 1960's and prior motorcycles as examples, the reader is reminded that engineering theory and the laws of physics do not change and as such, the information it contains is still relevant today. Consequently, this publication is indispensible to those either contemplating modification to a current model or the construction of a 'special' for any form of motorcycle competition. Predominantly a technical work, it is written in terms easily understood by the layman. While it includes geometry and math formulae the reader will be aptly rewarded if they take a moment to comprehend the significance of the examples. Consequently, 'Motorcycle Engineering' is considered by many knowledgeable motorcycle enthusiasts to be the best book ever written on how to construct, improve, modify and fine tune a motorcycle from the 'ground up'. It is our pleasure to offer this reprint to all motorcycle enthusiasts worldwide.

The Art of the Racing Motorcycle by Phillip Tooth Pdf

A lavishly illustrated and definitive look at the design evolution of the racing motorcycle. The dynamic between competition and design has always fueled the evolution of racing motorcycles and inspired astonishing feats of design and engineering. This book traces the development of the sport bike, from the earliest French motorcycles to the dominance of British machinery in the 1930s, the exotic Italian motorcycles of the 1950s and 1960s, the influence of American racing in the 1970s and 1980s, and today’s Japanese superbikes. More than fifty classic motorcycles—from Harley-Davidsons to Peugeots, Velocettes, Moto Guzzis, BMWs, Kawasakis, and Ducatis—are presented chronologically illustrated with stunning studio photographs that present the machines as works of art and wonders of design in themselves, accompanied by rare and beautiful archival images that place the subjects in the contexts of classic races, rallies, and motorcycle shows, and accompanied by essays revealing the legends behind the machines. Some of the championship motorcycles featured include the 1902 Manon, the 1922 Harley Davidson 8-valve, the 1935 Terrot 500, the 1948 AJS Porcupine, the 1954 Moto Guzzi V8, the 1965 Honda GP 250, The 1976 Suzuki RK67, the 1986 Cagiva GP, and the 1990 Ducati Supermono.

Karma by Sadhguru Pdf

NEW YORK TIMES, USA TODAY, and PUBLISHERS WEEKLY BESTSELLER “Full of valuable insights to guide you.”—WILL SMITH “Thoughtful and life-affirming . . . a must-read.”—TONY ROBBINS “This book will put you back in charge of your own life.”—TOM BRADY A new perspective on the overused and misunderstood concept of “karma” that offers the key to happiness and enlightenment, from the world-renowned spiritual master Sadhguru. What is karma? Most people understand karma as a balance sheet of good and bad deeds, virtues and sins. The mechanism that decrees that we cannot evade the consequences of our own actions. In reality, karma has nothing to do with reward and punishment. Karma simply means action: your action, your responsibility. It isn’t some external system of crime and punishment, but an internal cycle generated by you. Accumulation of karma is determined only by your intention and the way you respond to what is happening to you. Over time, it’s possible to become ensnared by your own unconscious patterns of behavior. In Karma, Sadhguru seeks to put you back in the driver’s seat, turning you from a terror-struck passenger to a confident driver navigating the course of your own destiny. By living consciously and fully inhabiting each moment, you can free yourself from the cycle. Karma is an exploration and a manual, restoring our understanding of karma to its original potential for freedom and empowerment instead of a source of entanglement. Through Sadhguru’s teachings, you will learn how to live intelligently and joyfully in a challenging world.
