Well, Eric's book generalizes a bit about engine theory, while still including some specific model tuning information. I noticed the pic of Rich on page 81 of the third edition (more specifically, the caption) while thumbing through the pages in the book store, then I flipped back to the cover to realize exactly what gold mine I had found, the book now lives on my shelf.

If you want to know how to tear down and then rebuild a particular machine, the the FSM is the only way to go. There won't be a lot of how it works there though. The manual is really about the best way to take it apart and inspect the remains.

So, I throw back a question, would you like to know the specifics of how to disassemble and reassemble your motorcycle, or do you want a better understanding of how dirt bikes work?


Now back to the original topic, If the world were perfect, there would be no abrupt topic changes in the middle of a discussion.

Not to get off topic but how is that? I was thinking about buying that book but was wondering if i should just get a reapair manual for my bike instead??

Get them both. The factory service manual first, then Eric's book. Read them both cover to cover a few times.

In the perfect world parts would be free:D
Parts are free, you just need to know where they are, and what time the people in the house sleep. J/K, in no way does the FruDaddy condone theft.

In a perfect world: Children would say: "Gee riding in the car sure is fun!" and then they would fall asleep for the rest of the trip.

.......i could ride as fast as i wanted or liked to,, crash as hard as i wanted to,
and not have any silly or annoying repercussions from it..

also if things were perfect--
.......I could swipe preds cape undetected, stuff it in his airbox, then enjoy the fun of watching him endlessly kick ,
only to have one of the usual suspects- mully, gomer , truespode or twinspode laugh, and get blamed for it all..
