2 out of 5 stars This book should be condenced to just a magazine article.   March 20, 2002

The title to this book can be verry misleading, chances are anyone with enough ambition to build a motorcycle, already knows the basics that this book covers, if you are looking for power hungry tech info, this book will let you down for sure. This book would however make a great part one of a two part book, C'mon Timothy Remus, where's part two?

I actually liked this book. If you have in mind building your own motorcycle and have never done it before, this book lets you know what you are going to have to think about. It's not going to tell you exactly everything you are going to do step by step because every custom bike is different. But it does put in order the things you need to do once you decide what you want.

Maybe the other reviewers didn't realize that they would have to come up with their own ideas about what they wanted to end up with. This book is not about building a particular motorcycle, it is about building YOUR dream motorcycle, whatever style that may be.

I recommend this book to anyone who is considering building a motorcycle, who hasn't done it before and who has a pretty good idea of what they want to end up with. It will help you get your stuff together.

This book was very boring!!! Tim Remus just rambles on about diffrent parts of bikes and what to look for. if your looking to build a bike form top to bottom this ain't the book. unless your paper training that new puppy he/she will injoy the read.

THIS BOOK WAS VERY BORING! AND RELLY DIDEN'T COVER HOW TO ACTULY BULID A BIKE. TIM REMUS JUST RAMBLES ON ABOUT CERTIN PARTS OF A BIKE AND WHAT THEY DO.AND HOW YOU PICK PARTS FOR YOUR BIKE. IT DID HAVE SOME INTRESTING TIPS BUT NOTHING SPECIAL ENOUGH TO EVEN TALK ABOUT (I;LL JUST LEAVE IT AT THAT) I RECOMMEND LOOKING AT IT AT THE BOOK STORE THEN PUTTING IT BACK ON THE SHELF.
