Publisher's Synopsis
Custom Bike Building-Advanced is just what the title - suggests. This book takes all the building advice - presented in Custom Bike Building BASICS, and gives - the reader MORE: Information on how to equip your - shop. Tips and techniques for welding steel and with - your MIG or TIG welder. Sheet metal fabrication forming - sequences. Information on making your own handlebars - and exhaust pipes. Help with making a leather seat - cover that's truly your own. - What hasn't changed with this new book is the author - - Chris Callen of Cycle Source magazine fame. Which - means the book is written for riders working at home and - in small shops. You don't need a big catalog of - aftermarket parts, you only need this book, a small set of - tools, your own imagination and the drive to see the - project through to the end. Like the Basics book, this one - includes three, start-to-finish bike assemblies. And like - that earlier book, this one leans toward the earlier - Harley-Davidson powerplants - Knuckleheads, Pans, - Shovels and Ironhead Sportys - built on a budget by real - people with a little grease under their fingernails.
