Speed and How to Obtain It
Author: J. E. G. Harwood
Publisher: Veloce Enterprises, Incorporated
ISBN: 9781588501479
Category : Transportation
Languages : en
Pages : 196
Book Description
184 pages, 64 black & white illustrations, size 5.5 x 8.5 inches. Originally published by Lliffe & Sons of London UK in 1925, this is a faithful reproduction of the 8th impression 1962 Floyd Clymer U.S.A. Edition published under special arrangement with Lliffe. From its initial introduction in 1925 'Speed and How to Obtain It' subsequently progressed through a number of editions and impressions and ultimately became one of the best selling motorcycle 'tune up' books ever. The 'dated information' contained in this publication is considered valuable today by those enthusiasts interested in vintage motorcycle racing, tuning and modification. Consequently, this makes the 1962 8th impression the most complete and desirable edition of this book. While predominantly a technical work, it is written in terms easily understood by the layman. To paraphrase the author, "This book is intended for the man whose technical knowledge is not on a par with his skills as a mechanic." Obviously, the primary focus of this publication is on 1960's and prior British motorcycles. However, the reader is reminded that engineering theory and the laws of physics do not change and as such, much of the information is also applicable to the current crop of high revving imports. In addition, there is a comprehensive section on modifying the two-stroke engine for both street and competition work. 'Speed and How to Obtain It' is considered by many knowledgeable motorcycle enthusiasts to be one of the better books ever written on how to improve, modify and fine tune a vintage British motorcycle engine. Therefore, it is our pleasure to offer this reprint to vintage British motorcycle enthusiasts worldwide.

1962-1965 BSA A50 & A65 Factory Workshop Manual Unit-Construction Twins
Author: Floyd Clymer
Publisher: Veloce Enterprises, Incorporated
ISBN: 9781588502520
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
252 pages, and more than 240 illustrations and charts, size 8.25 x 10.75 inches. This publication is a faithful reproduction of the 1962-1965 BSA Factory Workshop Manual part number 00-4113 that covers the A50 (500cc) and A65 (650cc) unit-construction twins manufactured between August 1961 through the end of July 1965. It should be noted that BSA model years ran from August through July. For example, the 1962 models were released in August 1961, the 1963 models in August 1962 etc. This can, at times, cause confusion and the only sure method of determining 'what year is it?' is by the serial number. The various engine and frame numbers for the 1962 to 1965 unit-construction twins are shown in the table below. Note that the pre-1966 engine and frame numbers seldom matched. MODEL KEY: C = Cyclone, CC = Cyclone Competition, L = Lightning, LC = Lightning Clubman, LR = Lightning Rocket, R = Rocket, S = Star, SH = Spitfire Hornet, TR = Thunderbolt Rocket. EXTENSION (-) KEY: CB = Cable (Rear) Brake, CR = Close Ratio Gearbox, PM = Police Model, RB = Rod (Rear) Brake, RC = Rev Counter, UK = United Kingdom Model, US = USA Model. 1962 Engine/Frame A50S-CB A50-101/A50-101 A50S-RB A50-101/A50A-101 A65S-CB A65-101/A50-101 A65S-RB A65-101/A50A-101 1963 Engine/Frame A50S-CB A50-823/A50-2288 A50S-RB A50-823/A50-2701 A65S-CB A65-1947/A50-2288 A65S-RB A65-1947/A50-2701 1964 Engine/Frame A50S A50A-101/A50-5501 A50-PM A50AP-101/A50-5501 A50C-US A50B-101/A50B-101 A50C-CR A50B-C101/A50B-101 A65S A65A-101/A50-5501 A65-PM A65AP-101/A50-5501 A65R A65B-101/A50B-101 A65R-RC A65C-101/A50-5501 A65TR A65B-101/A50-5501 A65LR A65D-101/A50B-101 A65SH A65E-101/A50B-101 1965 Engine/Frame A50S A50A-686/A50-8437 A50-PM A50AP-121/A50-8437 A50C-US A50D-101/A50B-4001 A50CC-US A50B-507/A50B-4001 A50C-UK A50DC-101/A50B-4001 A50CC-UK A50DC-101/A50B-4001 A65S
