Motorcycles: Fundamentals, Service, Repair 5e, Online Textbook
Motorcycles: Fundamentals, Service, and Repair provides in-depth, up-to-date coverage of the construction, operation, maintenance, service, and repair of motorcycle systems and components. This comprehensive, full-color textbook also includes information on ATVs, UTVs, and scooters, and content is applicable to all makes and models. Coverage includes conventional design features and the latest engineering advances, including electronic ignition systems, emission control systems, cruise control, power drives, fuel injection, and anti-lock brakes. The Lab Workbook provides guided shop procedures for hands-on practice of skills, allowing students to demonstrate what they have learned. This new edition includes DVOM simulations in the online content, allowing students to practice using a DVOM to measure electrical values in common circuit configurations and help them predict the electrical values present at different points in basic circuits.
