Motorcycle Electrical Systems: Troubleshooting and Repair (Motorbooks Worksho

Description: About this productProduct InformationA motorcycle's electrical system can be daunting to even the most adept home mechanic. And yet, the more complex these systems become--and the more important to a motorcycle's function--the more useful, even critical, it will be to know something about them. That's where this book comes in with a user-friendly guide to understanding, diagnosing, and fixing the electrical systems and components that make a bike run . . . or falter. Veteran technician Tracy Martin explains the principles behind motorcycle electrical systems and how they work. He details the various tools, such as multimeters and test lights, that can be used to evaluate and troubleshoot any vehicle's electrical problem. And in several hands-on projects, he takes readers on a guided tour of their vehicle's electrical system, along the way giving clear, step-by-step instructions for diagnosing specific problems.Product IdentifiersPublisherQuarto Publishing Group USAISBN-100760327165ISBN-139780760327166eBay Product ID (ePID)56994641Product Key FeaturesBook TitleMotorcycle Electrical Systems : Troubleshooting and RepairAuthorTracy MartinFormatPerfectLanguageEnglishFeaturesRevisedTopicMotorcycles / Repair & Maintenance, Motorcycles / GeneralPublication Year2007GenreTransportationNumber of Pages160 PagesDimensionsItem Length10.8in.Item Height0.5in.Item Width8.2in.Item Weight21.7 OzAdditional Product FeaturesLc Classification NumberTl445.M37 2007Edition DescriptionRevised EditionReviewsCycle News,March 7, 2007 "Martin simplifies the complex language and operations of electrical systems of motorcycles so that the diagnostics and repairs can be done with ease."
