Magnificent motorcycles / Rob Colson.
"Almost immediately after the invention of the bicycle, engineers began to think of ways to power them. Eventually, the motorcycle was born and engineered to meet incredible speeds. Through accessible, at-level text, this high-interest volume explains the evolution of motor-propelled two-wheeled vehicles, including dirt bikes, stunt bikes, streamliners, and the concept motorcycles of the future, accompanied by stunning photographs. Statistics, timelines, infographics, and diagrams explaining technology concepts will inspire vehicle fans and budding engineers alike"--Provided by the publisher.
