New Zealand's Motorcycle Heritage order quantity
  +   -
 
NZ$ 89.99 each
Paperback
Author: Maureen Bull & Christine Hawker
In Stock: 3
This is the final book in a three volume history of motorcycling as it developed in New Zealand.

It takes the reader on a journey from 1960 into the 21st century. When the Japanese Honda factory produced their reliable little machines, they heralded the demise of the British motorcycle industry's dominance. This book illustrates the end of one era and the birth of a huge range of motorcycles which offered affordable motoring for everyone. Scooters replaced smaller clip-on motors, and the world fuel crisis of the 1970s which saw carless days introduced, was a boom time for cheaper forms of motoring. Farmers replaced their horses and light tractors with the all-terrain-vehicle three wheelers which were quickly supplemented by quads. John Britten received world recognition for his revolutionary motorcycle developed and produced over a decade from the mid 1980s. Kiwi riders have become world motorcycle title holders in ... more

Author: Laurel C. Allen

Here is the intriguing story of one of the world's most admired and enduring motorcycle companies, and how their fortunes were moulded by a determination to win races.

Early in the last century, the fledgling company decided to test its products, demonstrate the quality of its designs, and showcase German technology by winning competitions. That determination has lasted to this day, as BMW has remained a formidable competitor in various venues of motorcycle racing.
The book covers the company's early mutation from aircraft engine builder to producer of reliable, high-quality motorcycles. Its development of supercharged engines, advanced suspension systems, and many other innovations led to its dominance of various race competitions at different times, with many of those technologies making their way into production motorcycles.

Hell's Angels (Popular Penguin) order quantity

NZ$ 12.95 each
Paperback
Author: Hunter S. Thompson
In Stock: 2
The Hell's Angels erupted into 1960s America, paralysing whole towns with fear. Determined to discover the truth behind the terrifying reputation of these marauding biker gangs, Hunter S. Thompson spent a year on the road with the Angels, documenting his hair-raising experiences with Charger Charley, Big Frank, Little Jesus and The Gimp. Hell's Angels was the result: a masterpiece of underground reportage whose free-wheeling, impressionistic style created the legend of Gonzo journalism, and made Thompson's name as the wild man of American writing.

Hardback
Author: Rhys Jones
In Stock: 2
The first of two volumes celebrating New Zealand's champions on two wheels. More World Championships have been won by Kiwi motorcyclists than by competitors in any other sport in this country, with nine riders winning 35 World Championships. Others have come breathtakingly close, with four riders second in Moto GP, and victories in the Isle of Man, still the world's most demanding road race. Today young Kiwi riders are on the brink of greatness, in both on and off road events. Hugh Anderson, Graeme Crosby, Ivan Mauger, Ben Townley, Josh Coppins and Aaron Slight all enjoy international respect, fiercely competitive men who've driven themselves to the level of excellence of Kiwi heroes on two wheels. They've had it tough, because of our remoteness, having to drive harder, and take more risks to achieve podium finishes. It's cost them all dearly. Not all the great riders won world championships; some achieved enormous success in ... more

Advanced Custom Motorcycle Painting order quantity
  +   -
NZ$ 75.00 each
Paperback
Author: Dave Perewitz
In Stock: 1
The subject of custom painting is always important for the simple reason that motorcycle owners can't leave their bikes alone, and do not want their bike to look like all those other bikes in the parking lot. The first thing most motorcycle owners do with a new bike is to make it their own, with chrome accessories, new sheet metal, and unique paint. The easiest way to make a bike stand out in a crowd is with a nice custom paint job. The book is timely and important because people want to learn how to apply custom paint themselves, without having to pay someone else two to five thousand dollars for a candy job or really nice set of flames buried under multiple clearcoats. The other reason this book is important is because of the nature of modern paint. Though the urethanes are more durable than anything used before, they are expensive and can be toxic, so correct use of the materials is more important than ever. This book is the only ... more
