Summary

Whether it's geared up for racing, tricked out as a pit bike, used to teach kids how to ride, or simply to take a spin, the small motorbike takes as much care and maintenance as its larger counterpart. This book, by one of the world's foremost off-road motorcycle builders, tells you everything you need to know to keep your mini-motocross or playbike running smoothly, safely, and in style. This comprehensive handbook covers a variety of models, from 50cc racers to 250cc playbikes, whilst a complete buying guide helps readers determine which of small bikes best suits their needs. Providing clearly detailed information on maintenance schedules, procedures, plus the tools, materials, and space you need, as well as model-specific suggestions for modifying the bikes to improve performance on and off the racetrack, and sample builds of some of the most popular race and play bikes on the market this will be eagerly welcomed by any mini-bike rider and owner.
