      Title should be: Beginners Guide to Vintage Dirt Bike

      It was a collection of superficial reviews on a bunch of collector owned trail and motocross bikes. Not comprehensive at all. No Suzuki bikes AT ALL—they were huge in early 70’s motocross, world champions raced them, and street enduros were very popular. (The author must of not known any Suzuki collector). Only 1 Maico, NO Husqvarna at all—these were hugely popular and successful. Instead 3 Harley’s—no one raced them in motocross(flat track absolutely, but Not motocross.). The book did have Penton(6??), Hodaka, Ossa(5??), Bultaco, Montesa and they were significant. Overall not a great overview of what was out there. If you know nothing I guess it would help. But is of little use for “Enthusiasts.”

      Filled with nice bikes and info for the collector or soon to be collectors.

      Early model dirt bikes are something many people can enjoy and remember the past no different than people collecting 68 Camaro's etc. yet a little more affordable and they don't require as much space. This book has many different brands some common and some not as common but you take each model and enjoy what inspired others and might inspire you to find the model that works for you.
