Product Description
Cruisers such as Harley-Davidsons represent the fastest-growing segment in motorcycle sales and the Twin-Cam engine is used in many of the most popular Harleys on the road today. None of these bikes remains in stock condition. Owners personalize and customize them and most Twin-Cam models receive performance upgrades such as aftermarket pipes, brake and suspension upgrades and engine modifications. Respected motorcycle journalists Chris Maida and Mark Zimmerman present 101 projects an owner can consider or undertake to customize a bike s power, ride and styling. They cover basic regular maintenance and cosmetic customizing as well as more-complex performance projects such as suspension tuning and working on the electrical system. Color photos showing each project in step-by-step fashion make it easy for readers to undertake projects themselves.

 Too general July 23, 2008
Anthony L. Broolks (Phila, PA)
The book is too vague. All the tasks fail to go into any kind of detail. Unless you have access to a Harley mechanic I would leave this one alone.

I purchased a 2002 Harley FXD Dyna two months ago and wanted a resource for maintenance tips and upgrade performance options. This book fully satisfied all those needs. It has clear descriptions regarding bike care and starts from basics topics (how to change fluids) to medium (re-jetting a CV carb) to advanced (engine balancing). All projects are rated in terms of difficulty.
This book will advance your knowledge of how your bike operates so even if you never intend to take a wrench to your bike, you'll learn which performance upgrades are appropriate for your bike, riding style and wallet. Highly recommended!
Perfect book December 12, 2007

My husband absolutely loves this book, says it is the perfect addition to his other Harley repair books. Loves the layout of the 'projects' and the suggestions of how to do what. Again, this item was exactly as ordered, shipped as stated and arrived quickly.

Good usable "How-To" data for the home bound mechanic who either cannot afford to pay the shop rate, or (like myself), would simply rather do it yourself. Good methods of approach with suggestions regarding additional side jobs that could be best completed at the same time and in the same stroke. It fills in the gaps that the factory manuals normally do not cover and applies a good deal of simple common sense.

I bought this thinking it might have more detail, both in description and photos, on how to perform the simpler repair and maintenance tasks on a Harley. Instead, one gets only the broadest sense of how such tasks might be done, and you get the feeling you're still better off leaving the work to a Harley mechanic. Not much help.
