How to Set Up Your Motorcycle Workshop: Tips and Tricks for Building and Equipping Your Dream Workshop
by C. G. Masi
Paperback from Whitehorse Press
"What's great about this book is that it covers everything from small spaces big enough for a single bike to professional repair and race shops. In all of these spaces, one concern remains constant: where to put things. Masi goes into the theory of how to organize such an environment and illustrates his examples with clear, easy-to-read diagrams and photographs."
