Fantastic book by a fantastic author
This is THE book on the history of the XR-750. Fantastic book by a fantastic author. It loses a star though for the terrible reproduction of photos. They look like old 1970s photocopies of photocopies. All black and white inside, they are mostly murky and blurry. As if the original book was scanned in and laser printed -- which may well explain the cheap price compared with the mad prices that used copies of the 1991 original book sell for today. A bit disappointing because it is hard to see the nitty gritty tech details in the photos, which a book like this is much about.Overall, though, a great read. It is more about the history of the bike's and the excitement of racing the big dogs than about specific technical detail of exactly how each engine was made to produce more power. No actual cam timings or port shapes. But lots of general details on both the factory bikes and improvements made by outsiders and some of the world's best tuners.

The only good picture is on the cover
Great history of the XR750 and shows how screwed up Harley Davidson was and still is. I would give it five stars but the pictures as others have noted SUCK! At the price of this book I would expect better.

Book is a great history of the xr750 up to the early 90's
Book is a great history of the xr750 up to the early 90's. I enjoyed it very much,loads of information on the much lauded and much maligned xr750. If i could ask for one thing from this book it would be to improve the pictures .

Ottimo libro per i contenuti, pecca nella qualità di stampa
Questa edizione è una ristampa dell'originale pubblicato nel 1991, infatti la casa editrice Echo Point è specializzata nella riproduzione di vecchi testi fuori commercio. Purtroppo la qualità della stampa è un po' deludente, con caratteri non proprio nitidi e immagine "piatte", in una sorta di effetto fotocopia.Per quanto riguarda i contenuti invece il libro è eccellente e narra, con grande livello di approfondimento tecnico, tutta la storia della XR-750 da flat track, fino appunto al 1991. Non a caso la prima edizione, ormai introvabile se non a cifre esagerate, è da sempre considerata il testo di riferimento sull'argomento e grazie a questa ristampa è possibile entrarne in possesso a un prezzo ragionevole, a patto di qualche rinuncia sulla qualità di stampa.

si poteva fare di più
Libro tecnicamente completo, inspiegabile l'assenza di foto a colori e comunque la scarsità di immagini. Trattandosi di una monografia e della sterminata documentazione disponibile sul veicolo in questione da questo autore mi aspettavo, come per altri suoi titoli, un volume "definitivo" sull' argomento.L'impaginazione economica va anche bene se lo fosse anche il prezzo.

NO TECH. INFO.
This book is not about the motorcycle. It's about the people that rode it and the events it won. Very little tech. Info on the machine itself.Should be titled XR750 RACE WINS. VERY DISAPOINTED!!!
