The Old Mechanic: stories of an old motorcycle mechanic

The story of an old motorcycle mechanic who takes on an apprentice and, together, they restore a 1959 Norton 500cc ES2 motorcycle. The book takes the reader right through the process of restoring an old British classic motorcycle, from rebuilding the engine through to getting the bike on the road. But it is more than just about motorcycles; it is about the passing on of a lifetime's worth of knowledge from one generation to the next.
