5.0 out of 5 stars If you are serious about bevel twins this is a "must have", 17 Jun 1999
By A Customer
Mick Walker has been into Ducatis for as long as I can remember. He had a dealership in the 60s and 70s, as well as being involved in the racing side. Now Mick and his brother Rick spend their time giving advise and supplying those hard to get parts at reasonable cost from Wisbech, Cambridge UK. Yes he is still at it. This book (I borrowed a copy) is a very comprehensive reference guide. It is not a workshop manual, it is a history book and a technical book in one. Chapters on various cycle parts, electrics, engine, carburation etc. Hints and tips abound ( did you know that there are 3 different types of Lucas Rita I did not - I bought the wrong one ). There is a half page devoted to petrol taps (petrol cocks) for example. This is a very comprehensive guide for anyone with a bevel twin it has an abundance of photographs (B/W) and much technical data. Excellent bedtime reading from a leading authority on things Ducati, Buy it,read it, and then keep it by your bedside .

5.0 out of 5 stars Ian Falloon - Ducati Twins Restoration Guide Bevel Twins 1971 - 1985, 1 Jul 2007
By Vulpine2 (Peak District) - See all my reviews
This is THE book if you are restoring a bevel twin - or even just want to browse amongst the detail. Far more comprehensive than Mick Walker's book - which has virtually the same title but is not devoted solely to the bevels and as such also includes a few details and some photos of the parallel twins and the early belt drives. As a bevel owner you would ideally have both books but given the choice of one I'd go for Falloon. A chapter devoted to each model, with year on year modifications ,plenty of B&W photos, lots of restorers tips, specification lists and finally a chapter devoted solely to engine resoration - something that could make or break a bevel twin. If you are restoring any bevel twin you need this book.

To avoid any possible confusion the Walker book, printed in 1993 (but recently reprinted?), is ISBN 1-85532-304-4 and the Fallon book, currently out of print, is ISBN 0-7603-0490-4)lly comprehensive guide to the bevel twin series. There appears to be some confusion
