Book Reviews of Motorcycle Electrical Manual (Haynes Manuals)

Book Review: How to teach an idiot...
Summary: 4 Stars

I bought this book as I have a mental block when it comes to motorbike electrics. I have had a few bikes now with faulty wiring and wanted to over come this once and for all.

The book is typical Haynes manual which is a good place to start from. If you are used to their style of writing and layout then you will be comfortable with this straight away. It covers all aspects of electrics and include classic equipment to give a simple grounding in principles and then works its way forward to more complex ideas.

Most of the descriptions are theoretical and until I start work on my bike I cannot judge how this will translate into real world application. I imagine it will be fairly successful as I have used Haynes before.

The only thing that I would like to see in later editions is colour and maybe a breakdown on how to read a full modern wiring diagram, maybe showing how all the separate circuits are linked together. That said I would still recommend to a friend.
