Well, at the very least you should have Rupert Ratio’s two volumes (on engines and everything else respectively). Rupert is often on here and he or his wife will oblige if you want to order copies. Read and read again, then again maybe.

Thank you for the info
Any body ever read Coventrys motorcycle heritage
I picked a copy for reading
From vinted the clothes app
Or motorcycles from the 1900s too now book
These show research intoo 1900s flat tankers
With American style handlebar round type ones
Like a bicycle of 1910 or 1920
I now have Rupert's ratio engine and frame books will endeavour too read some of his work

Thank you
