Yamaha Ya5 and Ya6 Workshop Manuals and Illustrated Parts Lists 1961-1967
292 pages, 280 illustrations, size 8.25 x 11 inches. This manual is a compilation of a number of various Yamaha Factory Manuals and covers both the YA5 and YA6 series of motorcycles manufactured from 1961 through 1967. While the primary focus of this manual is on the YA5 and YA6 models, the information contained within would be of use to owners of both the earlier YA1 to YA4 (1955-1960) and the later YA7 and YA8 (1968-1972) models as many of the components and repair procedures remained consistent throughout the entire series.Possibly the most comprehensive manual available for the YA5 and YA6 models, it includes numerous charts and graphs in addition to 280 illustrations.

Motorcycle Driving Lessons/I NEVER WANTED A MOTORCYCLE
I hope this book is as interesting for you to read as it was for me to write. I think all of the "How to" manuals were written by men who had been riding for years. I thought this would be a different perspective.As you can see looking through the pages starting at the front of the book are the driving lessons and if you turn the book upside down and start at the back of the book you will find my actual experiences and practices. REMEMBER - if I can do it, you can do it.The life experiences for the lessons are separate from the lesson plans so as not to sway you one way or the another before you go out and practice. Don't get discouraged. Please wait until after your practice to read my actual experience. You might be surprised.Your lesson probably will be better then you thought. It has to go better than mine.

Fix Your FreewheelNew Process Freewheel Servicing and Repair as Used on Chrysler, De Soto,
Freewheeling unleashes the wingpower of momentum! So declared the colourful copy in an advertisement for 1931 Studebakers and their brand new motoring advance. At a time when most gearboxes had no synchromesh, double-declutching was the rule. It could not be rushed and made gear-shifting an unpleasant action to be avoided. Free-wheeling or the one-way clutch made gear shifting possible without using the clutch pedal at all. Cars could coast along at cruising speeds with the engine at idle, saving fuel. However, by the late 1930s, free-wheeling was virtually gone from new-car showrooms, replaced by overdrives, synchro-mesh or vacuum-assisted gearshifts. This book is for owners of all free-wheeled cars of the 1930s made in Britain and the United States, and those using this special feature afterwards, such as Rover and Bristol.It covers in-depth servicing and repair of the New Process Freewheel, as used on Chrysler, De Soto, Dodge and Rover Cars and special insights on other types of free-wheels.So whether your collection has any of these cars or whether you treasure a Lincoln, Marmon, Hupmobile or Studebaker, buy this manual and -FIX YOUR FREEWHEEL!

Chevelle Performance Projects
The photos in this edition are black and white. Many Chevelle owners are not content to keep their cars strictly stock. In the time since these cars were built in the 1960s and 1970s, suspension, steering, brake, and engine technology have taken giant leaps forward. Many Chevelle owners want to enjoy all the benefits of modern technology as well as the pleasure of driving a classic muscle car. But for many owners, completing a coil-over shock install, bolting on aftermarket disc brakes, or installing sub-frame connectors is something they've never done before and seems daunting. In Chevelle Performance Projects, author Cole Quinnell provides comprehensive instruction on upgrades to every component group of the car including chassis, suspension, brakes, transmission, driveline, engine, interior, and electrics. Examples of component installs include HEI ignition, upgrading steering system, tubular A-arms, a 5-speed transmission swap, stiffer coil-over and leaf springs, and much more. Installing a modern GM LS engine is a popular project, and Quinnell covers this complex install from start to finish as well. This book offers a full range of performance projects from mild to wild, so owners can perform minor to extensive modifications. Similar to other titles in the Performance Project Series, it features step-by-step procedures so owners can complete each project with ease. If you are a Chevelle owner and even remotely thinking of upgrades, this first-ever book on the subject will be a mandatory addition to your library.
BMW 3-Series (E30) Performance Guide
BMW has always had a reputation for quality in the cars it has exported to the United States. The BMW 2002 developed a cult following of loyal enthusiasts, and properly cemented BMW as a quality manufacturer of sporting sedans with this forerunner to the 3-series. BMW replaced the 2002 with the 3-series models in the 1970s, which heralded a new design, and new improvements annually, each one better than the last.The model that truly launched BMW into the performance arena in the United States were the second generation of 3-series cars, the "E30" chassis cars. These 1980s and 1990s era cars were offered with a wide range of engine/transmission combinations, but the basic chassis was so well engineered that owners were able to enjoy an outstanding combination of comfort and handling performance regardless of the powertrain. Today, the E30 family of BMWs are both readily available and affordable, and are popular with enthusiasts wanting to personalize them. Whether for on-track duty or simply improved street performance, the E30 series cars have proven to respond to well-chosen upgrades. Each specific section of the car (chassis, engine, transmission, etc.) is showcased and suitable performance upgrades are discussed in detail. Exterior appearance items are also covered, as are maximum wheel and tire sizes for the entire family of 3-series E30 BMWs. This book offers current and future owners a wealth of important information, including a buyer's guide, year-by-year upgrades and changes, and more. This book is a valuable addition to every BMW owner's library.
SUZUKI 2-STROKE TWINS 125cc TO 500cc - 1962 ONWARDS - WORKSHOP MANUAL
116 pages, 273 illustrations, size 8.25 x 11 inches.

Based on his experiences during that visit, Floyd also anticipated the need for repair manuals for those Japanese motorcycles that were just starting to be imported into the USA [Yamaha (1958), Honda (1959), Suzuki (1963)]. The predominance of the Floyd Clymer Japanese motorcycle manuals were reprints, or compilations, of the factory publications which today makes them more desirable than the current aftermarket manuals.At the time of Floyd's unexpected demise in 1970, there were a number of manuals that had been completed and were ready for publication. This 'Suzuki Twins from 1962' publication is one of those completed, but previously unpublished, Floyd Clymer manuals and while it was likely finalized in late 1969, many of the models were in production long past that date. For example, the Suzuki T500 Cobra introduced in 1968 continued, albeit with minor changes, up to the T500M model of 1975. Consequently, this manual will also be of use to owners of those models that remained in production beyond 1969.

How to Swap Ford Modular Engines into Mustangs, Torinos and More
Learn the tips and tricks to swap a Ford modular engine into your Mustang or Torino by using the knowledgeable instruction from this book. Author Dave Stribling covers motor-mount selection and fabrication, suspension and chassis modifications, aftermarket suspension options, firewall and transmission tunnel modifications, engine management and wiring procedures, fuel systems, exhaust systems, electrical mods and upgrades, and much more. Stribling specializes in modular engine swaps and expertly guides you through each crucial step of the engine transplant process. Because of the large physical size, many components (such as brake boosters, steering rods and boxes, and other underhood components) may need repositioning or modification to co-exist in the engine bay. Many older Ford muscle and performance cars are prime candidates for a modular swap; however, shock towers protrude into the engine bay of these cars, so modifications are necessary to fit the engine into the car, which is also covered here.The Ford modular engine is a popular swap for 1964-1/2-1973 Mustangs, Fox-Body Mustangs, trucks, hot rods, and other muscle cars because these high-tech engines provide exceptional performance and improved economy compared to their dated counterparts. Found in Mustangs and other Fords since the 1990s, installing a modular engine in a classic Ford infuses new technology and all the benefits that come with it into a classic car. Modular engines feature an overhead cam design that has massive horsepower potential, and are offered in 4.6-, 5.0-, 5.2- 5.4-, and 5.8-liter iterations. These high-tech 2-, 3-, and 4-valve engines are readily available as a crate engine, as well as from salvage yards, and in running cars. This engine design has a large physical footprint, and swapping the engine requires a thorough plan, using the proper tools and facilities.Swapping the engine and transmission into a muscle car or truck requires specialized processes, and this insightful, explanatory, and detailed instruction is found only in this book. If you are considering swapping one of these high-tech engines into a non-original chassis, this book is a vital component to the process.
Triumph 350/500 Unit-construction Twins Bible
Want to be an expert on Triumph's 350 and 500 unit-construction twins? Here is everything you need to know about these classic machines.Alongside the headline-grabbing bikes - the Bonneville and Trident - Triumph built a whole series of smaller 350/500cc machines, with all the style of their bigger brothers, but lighter in weight, easier to ride, and now cheaper to buy. The Triumph 350/500s played a key role in the company's success through the 1960s, in North America as well as the UK. The range included everything from the original 350cc 3TA, a mild-mannered tourer, to the final Daytona Tiger 500 (a modified version of which won the Daytona 500 race in 1967), and the TR5T trail bike.This comprehensive book covers the complete history of these bikes, with details of model variants, advice on buying and living with a Triumph 350/500, technical specifications, and a list of useful contacts.
How to Restore Yamaha Fs1-e
The Yamaha FS1-E is a 1970s icon. Introduced in the early '70s, it became an instant success, giving 16-year-olds their first taste of motorcycle performance and freedom, and totally overshadowing the other mopeds available at that time.? Many riders had their FS1-E for one year only before progressing to larger machines. Today, nostalgia for the youthful exuberance engendered by the 'Fizzie' has resulted in many ex-owners wanting to recreate their pride and joy.? Most FS1E 's have not endured the test of time well, and very few good original examples exist. There are, however, plenty of restorable machines around, and this book guides the do-it-yourself restorer through the process, from the minefield of initially finding a machine to restore, to the potential pitfalls of a first restoration. ?The bikes featured and photographed for the book include a seriously neglected 1974 machine, a part restored 1976 model - of dubious type, and a 1975 DX model which arrived as a pile of bits.
Mopar Small-Block Engines
Hit the horsepower goal of your Mopar small-block engine using this guide that identifies the best parts and techniques to extract maximum performance from LA and Magnum powerplants.Mopar engine expert and author Larry Shepard covers heads, cams, and valvetrain products and modifications that will give you more power. In addition, he provides exquisite details and in-depth buildup instruction for other essential components: blocks, cranks, pistons, rods, ignition systems, intakes, carburetors, and exhaust.The Chrysler LA-series and Magnum small-blocks are powerful, efficient, and quick-revving engines that have dutifully powered millions of Chrysler/Dodge/Plymouth cars and trucks from 1964 to 2003. And the LA engine is also the powerplant for many classic Mopar muscle cars, including the Charger, Barracuda, Challenger, Dart, and others. While these venerable small-blocks have delivered impressive performance in stock trim, both can be easily modified to produce much greater power for almost any application.The LA designates the small-block as "Lightweight A," which was a huge improvement over the previous generation. With its compact size, 50-pound weight savings, thin wall casting, and wedge heads, it cranked out a lot of torque and horsepower, so it was formidable competition on the street and track. The LA was offered in 273-, 318-, 340- and 360-ci inch iterations, and a full range of aftermarket products are offered for these engines. By 1992, the LA engine platform had evolved into the Magnum 5.2- and 5.9-liter engines and became the new standard of Mopar small-block performance. If you own an LA small-block-powered Mopar car or truck, this invaluable guidance and instruction will allow you to optimize performance and maintain reliability.
The Upper Half of the Motorcycle
Bernt Spiegel's The Upper Half of the Motorcycle was a best-selling motorcycling book in its original German with multiple editions and printings to its credit. Now translated into English, its provocative message is available to a wider audience. Spiegel's metaphor considers the rider and the motorcycle as a single unit, the rider being the upper half. Taking a multidisciplinary approach, the author draws on anthropology, psychology, biology, physics, and other disciplines to analyze the theory and function of the man-machine unit. Motorcycle riding is seen as a junction where people have created machines for personal transport and then become so adept at using them that the machine becomes like an extension of the rider themself. The ultimate goal for riders is the integration of the man-machine interface and subsequent skill development to the point of virtuosity. Spiegel considers the various aspects of motorcycle riding that must be understood, practiced, and mastered before virtuosity can be attained. Many anecdotes, supplementary material, and in-depth treatment of specialized topics is contained in sidebars and footnotes. Numerous diagrams and photographs illustrate the book's principles allowing the reader to consider and develop their riding skill set.

Practical Engine Airflow
The photos in this edition are black and white. The efficient flow of air through an engine is instrumental for producing maximum power. To maximize performance, engine builders seek to understand how air flows through components and ultimately through the entire engine. Engine builders use this knowledge and apply specific practices and principles to unlock horsepower within an engine; this applies to all engine types, including V-8s, V-6s, and imported 4-cylinder engines.Former Hot Rod magazine editor and founder of Westech Performance Group John Baechtel explains airflow dynamics through an engine in layman's terms so you can easily absorb it and apply it. The principles of airflow are explained; specifically, the physics of air and how it flows through major engine components, including the intake, heads, cylinders, and exhaust system. The most efficient and least restricted path through an engine is the key to high performance. To get to this higher level, the author explains atmospheric pressure, air density, and brake specific fuel consumption so you understand the properties of fuel for tuning. Baechtel covers the primary factors for optimizing the airflow path. This includes the fundamentals of air motion, air velocity, and boundary layers; obstructions; and pressure changes. Flowing air through the heads and the combustion chamber is key and is comprehensively explained. Also comprehensively explored is the exhaust system's airflow, in particular primary tube size and length, collector function, and scavenging. Chapters also include flowbench testing, evaluating flow numbers, and using airflow software. In the simplest terms, an engine is an air pump. Whether you're a professional engine builder or a serious amateur engine builder, you must understand engine airflow dynamics and must apply these principles if you want to optimize performance. If you want to achieve ultimate engine performance, you need this book.
Automotive Diagnostic Systems
The photos in this edition are black and white. The electronic control unit and other electronic controls are connected to every major system of a car built within the past 15 years, yet when there is a problem or an error code, many enthusiasts do not know how to go about fixing the problem. With this book, an affordable hand held scanner, and other common tools, the average enthusiast can diagnose and fix most common problems, rather than bringing the vehicle to a dealership for repair at shop rates of $100 per hour or more. Keith McCord recounts the history of automotive onboard diagnostic systems and creation of the rudimentary OBD I systems and the development as well as the evolution of OBD II. Currently, OBD-II (OnBoard Diagnostic II) is the standard of the industry, and this book provides a thorough explanation of this system. It details its main features, capabilities, and characteristics. It shows how to access the port connector on the car, the serial data protocols, and what the serial data means. To understand the diagnostic codes, the numbering system is defined and the table of common DTCs is shown. But most importantly, McCord provides a thorough process for trouble shooting problems, tracing a problem to its root, explaining why DTCs may not lead to the source of the underlying problem, and ultimately resolving the problem. Almost anyone can hook a scanning tool up to the serial port and read the error, but the key to fixing the problems is using an effective trouble shooting process that resolves all the issues that may be contributing or creating the problem. McCord provides sound procedures, insight, and information for resolving most ECU and computer control problems at home with affordable consumer-grade scanners.

Book of the Vintage Morgan Three Wheeler 1911-1952 All Matchless & J.A.P. V-Twin & Ford 4 Cylinder Models
130 pages, 59 black & white illustrations, size 5.5 x 8.5 inches. This re-print of the 3rd edition of the 'Book of the Morgan' by Harold Jelley was selected as being a significant edition as it includes maintenance, repair and overhaul information for the (then) newly introduced 4-cylinder Ford powered S.V. models in addition to information on the J.A.P. and Matchless V-Twin powered models. The 4-cylinder engine was utilized through 1952 with the only change during that time being an increase in capacity from 933 c.c. (8HP) to 1172 c.c. (10HP). Consequently, although this edition was published in 1935, it theoretically covers models manufactured for 17 years beyond its publication date. Also, the previous two editions of this publication did not include repair and overhaul information on the 4-cylinder models.With almost two-thirds of the contents devoted to the maintenance and overhaul of both mechanical and electrical components there is adequate detailed text and diagrams to assist in major refurbishing such as an engine rebuild or even a complete renovation.Includes, (in both air and water cooled configurations) the V-Twin J.A.P. KT, JT & LT O.H.V. & S.V. engines, the V-Twin Matchless MX, MX2 & MX4 O.H.V. & S.V. engines and the water cooled 4-cylinder S.V. Ford engine.Morgan models that utilized those engines include the: Standard (1911-1928), De Luxe (1912-1931), Grand Prix (1913-1926), Sporting (1913-1921), Family (1915-1937), Aero (1920-1933), Delivery Van (1928-1935), Super Sports (1927-1939), Sports (1932-1939), F-4 (1933-1952), F-2 (1935-1938) and the F Super (1938-1952). Obviously, due to its publication date, the specific models (both 2 and 4 seat) addressed in this publication are the 1935 Family, Sports, Super Sports and the 4-cylinder F series.Out-of-print and unavailable for many years, this book is becoming increasingly more difficult to find on the secondary market and we are pleased to be able to offer this reproduction as a service to all Morgan Three Wheeler owners, restorers and enthusiasts worldwide.
