This impressive, newly-updated book covers the whole world of the motorcycle from myth-and-legend to nuts-and-bolts in a single volume. It charts the evolution of the motorcycle from its first development by Daimler in 1885 to the superbikes of the 21st century, including special features on sport and racing, touring, custom models, speed record breakers and motorcycles at war, in the movies and at work. A large A–Z section is a definitive marque-by-marque encyclopedia of models and manufacturers, both existing and defunct. Every major marque is illustrated with photographs showing the beauty and originality of each machine. All entries detail the technical specifications of the machines and describe the key elements of their design, performance features, engineering standards and their qualities and attributes.


Roland Brown has four decades’ experience as a motorcycle journalist. He was deputy editor of Bike magazine before turning freelance and is the author of ten previous books about motorcycles. As a racer, he was a top six finisher in world F1 and British Superstock and Superbike rounds, and rode in endurance events including the Bol d’Or and Le Mans 24 Hours.
