I picked this up at a vintage Rally. Great story of Bernie and Lawrence Nicholson who sold british cycles on the prairies and ran a motorcycle parts mail order service for most of the twentieth century.


Bernie was also the author of Modern Motorcycle Mechanics which I had totally forgotten about but which I devoured as a young man.

MMM is apparently still available by the way. http://www.modernmotorcyclemechanics.com/buy_now.php

Being a bit of a collector of stuff and a book lover I have been attracted to workshop manuals and hang onto them.
I have a copy of this somewhere , thanks for reminding me.

Not to point out the obvious or anything but there's a RED link in the first post.
