When it comes to collector motorcycles, none hold the allure
of classic Harley-Davidson Knucklehead and Panhead Big Twins, but owning and
maintaining these temperamental machines provides endless challenges. Even
the most pristine, restored motorcycle needs a tremendous amount of care,
maintenance, and repair, and most examples are far from pristine
restorations, requiring periodic rebuilding and even restoration. Rebuilding
and restoring these machines is not so much a defined task as a never-ending
process. This book guides classic Harley owners through that process.
Beginning with a practical section on understanding,
choosing, and purchasing a classic Harley, this book focuses on the
wheel-to-wheel nuts and bolts of classic Harley ownership, from chassis to
bodywork. Through step-by-step photography and thoughtful, informative
instruction, readers will learn how to disassemble a chassis, repair a fork,
lace a wire wheel, and paint the major parts for any restoration. It
provides thorough instruction on repairing, overhauling, and restoring all
major components, such as the engine, transmission, and electrical systems.
With a thorough text and detailed photography, Rick Schunk
walks vintage Harley owners through start-to-finish instruction for each
operation necessary for the repair and restoration of a classic
Harley-Davidson Big Twin.
