Super Bikes From Around the World

REVISED AND UPDATED BY ROLAND BROWN. Hardcover, Dust Jacket, Parragon, England, 1997, 96 pages, A colorful encyclopedia of high performance bikes, past and present. This book is a revised and updated edition of the 1996 edition and includes the following sections: Nic Bakker, Bimota, BMW, Buell, Cagiva, Ducati, Egli, Harley-Davidson, Honda, Kawasaki, Magni, Moto Guzzi, Suzuki, Triumph, and Yamaha. A common complaint about modern motorcycles is that they are "all becoming the same". Yet even a cursory inspection of these Superbikes reveals a mouth-watering diversity of form and function. Turn the pages, relish them, and dream. For these are not merely motorcycles, they are fantasies given physical form.
