Download or read book Velocette written by Ivan Rhodes and published by Motorbooks. This book was released on 2003-07 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Velocette (pronounced velo-set) is an icon of the classic British motorcycle scene. Engineering excellence mattered more than the whims of the market to the Goodman family, owners of Veloce, Ltd., manufacturer of the Velocette motorcycle. This painstakingly assembled book details the history of the machines' development and competition success, as well as the story of the family behind the marque. Run with honesty and integrity, the company gained a loyal following and a reputation for building quality machines before closing its doors in 1971, beset by the economic factors that caused the downfall of the whole of the British motorcycle industry.

Download or read book Motorcycle Engineering written by P. E. Irving and published by Veloce Enterprises, Incorporated. This book was released on 2017-01-07 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 328 pages, 186 black & white illustrations, size 5.5 x 8.5 inches. This is a faithful reproduction of the 1962 Floyd Clymer U.S.A. Edition of the same title. While the primary focus of this publication utilizes 1960's and prior motorcycles as examples, the reader is reminded that engineering theory and the laws of physics do not change and as such, the information it contains is still relevant today. Consequently, this publication is indispensible to those either contemplating modification to a current model or the construction of a 'special' for any form of motorcycle competition. Predominantly a technical work, it is written in terms easily understood by the layman. While it includes geometry and math formulae the reader will be aptly rewarded if they take a moment to comprehend the significance of the examples. Consequently, 'Motorcycle Engineering' is considered by many knowledgeable motorcycle enthusiasts to be the best book ever written on how to construct, improve, modify and fine tune a motorcycle from the 'ground up'. It is our pleasure to offer this reprint to all motorcycle enthusiasts worldwide.
Download or read book Dead Men Don t Tell Tales written by Guy Martin and published by Random House. This book was released on 2021-10-28 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Guy Martin can't sit still. He has to keep pushing - both himself and whatever machine he is piloting - to the extreme. He's a doer, not a talker. That applies whether Guy's competing in a self-supported 750-mile mountain bike race across Arizona, or trying to reach 300mph in a standing mile on the 800-horsepower motorbike he built in his shed. And during his TV adventures, travelling through Japan, winning records for the world's fastest tractor, re-creating the famous Steve McQueen Great Escape jump, discovering the toil and sacrifice of the D-Day landings and trying to cut the mustard as a Battle of Britain pilot. Guy's become a dad now and he's hoping that one day his daughter will grow up to be a better welder than he is. Oh, and he's still getting up at 5am to work on trucks in for service or to be out on his tractor, working the Lincolnshire land he's always called home. This is Guy Martin's latest book, in his own words, on the last four years of his life that make the rest of us look like we're in slow motion. We're here for a good time, not a long time. To Guy, if it's worth doing, it's worth dying for.

Download or read book Velocette Mov Mac Mss 1933 1952 Rigid Frame Workshop Manual Illustrated Parts Manual written by Floyd Clymer and published by Veloce Enterprises, Incorporated. This book was released on 2023-04-13 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 196 pages and more than 83 illustrations and charts, size 8.25 x 10.75 inches. This publication is a reproduction of two original Velocette Factory Manuals, the October 1955 service manual, part number F50/7R and the March 1958 illustrated parts manual, part number F132/11R. The parts manual is invaluable as it details changes in construction by engine number and/or model year. The original 118-page factory service manual covers the 1933-1952 range of 250cc, 350cc and 500cc rigid frame models and both the 'Iron' Cylinder Head and 'Aluminum' Head machines. It includes the 1933-1948 MOV and the 1935-1948 MSS with Webb Girder Forks and the 1934-1952 MAC. The MAC models covered are the 1934-1948 with Webb Girder Forks, the 1948-1950 with 'Dowty' Oleomatic Forks and the 1951-1952 models with 'Veloce' Telescopic Forks. In addition, a reproduction of the factory 'Service and Maintenance' manual for Dowty forks is included. The original 68 page illustrated parts manual covers both the MOV and MAC models listed above. It also includes diagrams and parts listings for the Webb, Dowty and Velocette forks. The 350cc MAC is possibly the most popular Velocette model ever built. It evolved from the 250cc MOV by lengthening the stroke of the MOV crankshaft from 68.25 to 96 mm. From 1933-1939 the MAC was constructed with a rigid frame fitted with Webb girder forks. From 1940-1941 a version of the MAC was the basis for the company's World War II military motorcycles. The Military models were MDD and MAF (Factory Dispatch Records state 1320 were produced). In 1946, after the war, MAC civilian production restarted, and in 1948 the MAC's Webb girder forks were replaced with innovative air-sprung oil dampened 'Dowty Oleomatic' forks. In 1951, the Dowty forks were replaced by Veloce 'telescopic forks', with coil springs and oil damping. In June of that same year the engine was upgraded to an aluminum barrel and head with wider fins to improve cooling. For 1953, the MAC was updated with fully adjustable rear swinging arm suspension and a tube frame. Production of the rigid frame MAC ended in 1952 swing arm production ended in 1960. Based on the factory part numbers there were approximately 20 service and parts manuals published during the 20-year production run of the rigid frame machines. However, the print quality of the later factory manuals was not the best, as the same pages or sections from earlier publications were re-printed multiple times as the newer manuals were published. Unfortunately, this created problems in print quality and print density in those later manuals resulting in both light and heavy print on the same page. While we have done our best to correct as many of those imperfections as possible there are some occurrences that just could not be corrected. Therefore, we request your indulgence in tolerating any variations that still exist and accept that the intention in reproducing these manuals was to provide the reader with information that would assist in the renovation and maintenance of these classic Velocette motorcycles.

This book was released on 2023-02-13 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 204 pages and more than 60 illustrations and charts, size 8.25 x 10.75 inches. This publication is a reproduction of two original Velocette Factory Manuals, the March 1971 service manual, part number 484/11R and the January 1974 illustrated parts manual, part number F482/7R. The original 124-page factory service manual covers the 1954-1971 range of 350cc and 500cc machines including the Viper, Venom and MSS models and it also includes a 30-page supplement for the Thruxton, Scrambler and the Sports and Clubman models. This manual will also be of use to owners of the rare Floyd Clymer 'Indian Velo' which utilized either the MSS/Venom or the Thruxton engine. The original 76-page illustrated parts manual also includes a 20-page supplement for the 'special' machines and covers the 500cc MSS, Venom, Clubman (Mk. I & II), Scrambler, Thruxton and Endurance models plus the 350cc Viper, Clubman (Mk. I & II) and Scrambler. Owners of the 350cc and 500cc Velocette models are subjected to considerable confusion surrounding the appropriate selection of the multitude of originals and reprints of the various manuals that have recently flooded the online marketplace. Based on the factory part numbers there were approximately 20 service and parts manuals published during the 17-year production run of these machines and the earlier manuals do not include information on the Clubman, Scrambler and Special Viper variants or the Thruxton, Clubman, Scrambler and Special Venom models. However, the manuals selected for this reprint are those that include all of the 350cc & 500cc models and their variants manufactured by Velocette from 1954 to 1971.
