Product Description

Product Description
This is the definitive guide to identifying, buying and riding Japanese bikes from the 1960s to the early 1990s, concentrating on mainstream, affordable models from the 'big four': Honda, Kawasaki, Suzuki and Yamaha. Fully illustrated in colour throughout, the book provides a brief history of the Japanese motorcycle industry, its post-war rise and displacement of traditional British, European and American marques. Specific bikes are then grouped and discussed in detail, providing an essential reference for buyers and enthusiasts alike.

About the Author
Rod Ker is a freelance writer working for a range of motorcycle and car magazines, and he also contributes to the Daily Telegraph. He lives in Stafford.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Nostalgic, 28 Jul 2007
By Richard Allen - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
I found this book after James May referred to it in his Telegraph column. For anyone who is the wrong side of 40 and was desperate as a teenager in the 70s to own a motorbike, this is a wonderful read. All the bikes are there; the sports mopeds, the 250s and the four cylinder 750s. Lots of wonderful pictures. The author is clearly an enthusiast and whilst much of the detail was too technical for me, that didn't diminish from my enjoyment of the book.

Had hoped it might give some valuations.Also it didnt mention the bikes I own a CBX750FE (which was in fact included in one sentence)and Yamaha FZR600 (which apparently didnt exist).
