When this comprehensive volume of practical information was first published in the 1920s, hundreds of thousands of motorcycles were already in use. Written by a talented automotive and aviation pioneer, the profusely illustrated, easy-to-read book was one of the first exhaustive studies done on motorcycle operation and repair, offering advice on everything from mufflers and automatic oil pumps to batteries and timing values.
Following an introductory chapter on motorcycle development and design, the profusely illustrated text covers, among other subjects, various engines and power plants; theories of lubrication and carburetor design; materials employed in clutches; gear types and chain drives; frame parts, tires, and sidecars; standard motorcycle maintenance; and complete instructions for overhauling the engine. Also included is a complete chapter on the most up-to-date motorcycles of 1920. Immensely popular when it first appeared in print, Early Motorcycles will appeal just as much to today's collectors of antique cycles, dealers, and riders.

Cute - change footbed please
Size: 8.5, Color: Dense Smoke
These are so comfy and fit my usually 8.5 foot great. It's the footbed of UGGs that I keep hoping they'll change. It's like our memory foam mattress - cushy and great UNTIL THE HEAT comes! Then it's a no for this hot 65 yo G'ma!

Super fun!
Size: 8.5, Color: Red Pepper
These are so fantastic! The color is amazing! It is a bit on the tomato-red side of the color-wheel. The fit is great. They are comfortable from the 1st step. Easy to walk in.

Love them
Size: 5.5, Color: Red Pepper
I have gotten so many compliments on these shoes! They’re true to size and comfortable. Because of the material feet might sweat easier if hot but they dry quick. Quality is great and the color looks good, it’s more of a orange/red color. I got a 5.5 size
