Critics Review
The nostalgic appeal for those of us who grew up in the early custom bike scene is strong … a hardback coffee table book with class. The Road The book is beautifully Illustrated throughout, showing close up detail of quality chroming, superb custom paintwork and some amazing engraving. We found the book quite inspiring and it makes folk want to have a go at building their own board track racer based on an early Indian, similar to the one featured. An interesting book that will appeal to many a biker and enthusiast. Classic Motorcycle Mechanics
