Whether you're a Brit-bike devotee, or a fan of the custom motorcycle scene in general, this book is for you.
Trade Review100% Biker Seal of Approval ... I'm pleased to recommend 'British Custom Motorcycles' ... a full page photo of Spirit of Endeavour's engine cries out to be snipped out and framed! ... well worth a perusal 100% Biker Magazine follow[s] an excellent format which is hard to criticise because it works so well. Excellent photography is backed up by concise text and the quality of the presentation and layout works well ... once again it gets top marks for showing that not all custom machines need to be based around an American V-twin. So this latest tome is definitely worth having on the book shelf to complete the series on unusual custom machines from around the world that showcase innovative engineering and design.
