For a considerable period there were two distinct Germanys. Both the West and East produced innovative machinery, often in the vanguard of technical progress, good enough to win world titles. In this respect, the top names in the solo categories were NSU and Kreidler, while BMW, Fath, Munch and König did the business on three wheels. Germany was faced with rebuilding a shattered economy at the end of World War 2. Like Japan, the country not only created an economic miracle, but also constructed world-beating motorcycles.

Italy has a reputation for style in all things, not least in motorcycles. The first pure-bred Italian motorcycles made their appearance at the beginning of the 20th century and included Bianchi, Borgo, Prinetti \u0026amp; Stucchi and Ferrera.

Out went technologically irrelevant Grand Prix 500cc two-strokes and in came MotoGP and 990cc four-strokes. The new `monsters', as Valentino Rossi called them, instantly overpowered every race and lap record on the calendar. Halfway through the 2005 season it was announced that the following season would be the last for the 990s and from 2007 the capacity limit would be 800cc.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHonda's RC211V was the outstanding machine of the period and Valentino Rossi the dominant character, but when the Italian moved to Yamaha for 2004 and won again he not only rewrote the record books but reminded the world that in motorcycle racing it is the man who matters more than the machine.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book is a photographic record of the five years through which these 'monsters' roamed the race tracks of the world. The chapters on each year present arresting images of the major players and significant events, together with a short history of the season and a timeline. Between these five `year' chapters are interspersed further chapters themed to reflect different aspects of the MotoGP World Championship, such as Danger (illustrated not just by crash shots but also more subtle but just as scary images) and Places (looking at the tracks rather than the racing).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOur intention has been to use photographs that would not necessarily get printed in regular newspaper and magazine reports of the racing. While there is a sprinkling of straightforward action shots, especially in the chapters reporting the individual seasons, emphasis has been placed on the more unusual images, such as Valencia from the air, Japanese security guards forcing back -over-enthusiastic Rossi fans, or a close-up of a crashed Ducati's tank.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePhotographers from the UK, Italy, Germany, Poland, France, Australia, Sweden, Japan and the Netherlands contributed their work, while Julian Ryder, British Eurosport's MotoGP commentator, made the final choice and provided the words.

Each year's championship- winning machine is described in a short essay with an accompanying data panel, and there are 14 longer essays on the various \"eras of design\" in championship racing. The essays create a narrative that brings together the many and ever- evolving influences of engine design, materials, tires, and chassis to reveal what technology has provided to help riders win races.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePower, weight, and aerodynamics are critical performance areas in all forms of motorsport, but the racing motorcycle must have a unique degree of drivability and balance. Power is usable only if the rider can accurately control it. Increased tire grip is useless if it supplies no cues to let the rider know the limit is near. Above all, the bike must act as an extension of the rider's style and senses.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis interaction makes the rider an inherent part of the design and engineering of the motorcycle. The process can be seen at work in the garages after every race practice. The rider talks with the crew chief and the data technician, whose laptops are open. They discuss what can be done to be quicker at key points around the circuit. Successful solutions become the subject of engineering meetings at the factory, and may immediately return as updated parts, or be incorporated as an element of next season's machine.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eUnlike Formula One cars, which have little in common with road cars, either technically or visually, MotoGP motorcycles are not greatly different from everyday production sportbikes. They use virtually all the same technologies as their production counterparts, and closely resemble them. What's learned in this year's racing season affects the design of next year's production bikes. This continual process of evolution — the result of improvements born of pragmatic problem-solving at the track and in the race shop — has created the procession of modern motorcycles depicted in this book.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eOther Details\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003ePublisher Code:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e9781844255283\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003eISBN 10:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003eISBN 13:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e9781844255283\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003ePublished:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e2009\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e235x290mm\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003ePages:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e216\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003eIllustrations:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003eHard Bound, colour ill\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003eBarcode:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e9781844255283\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Haynes","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47627899371740,"sku":"9781844255283","price":275.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0814\/8297\/3404\/files\/b11940_the_grand_prix_motorcycle__45537.1339460321.1280.1280.jpg?v=1772085451"},{"product_id":"motogp-season-review-2009-number-6","title":"MotoGP Season Review 2009 NUMBER 6","description":"\u003cp\u003eBy: Julian Ryder .\u003cstrong\u003e #6 in an exciting Official MotoGP Review Series\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis sixth edition of the MotoGP Season Review examines in detail a year of racing dominated by four men.

In the 16 seasons from 1978 to 1993, Americans would win the 500cc world championship 13 times, cementing a tradition of U.S.—bred excellence that lives on in the sport today. These are the stories of the American world champions, told through interviews and with input from the riders themselves. With additional chapters on the American riders who competed at the top level of Grand Prix racing and those who won the World Superbike Championship, this is the story American racing fans have been waiting decades to read.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eSynopsis\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eFor decades, Grand Prix motorcycle road racing was a world championship in name only, a distinctly European sport run on road courses in the European tradition, with little connection to the dirt track roots of American two-wheeled racing. Then everything changed in 1978 when a hotshot American racer named Kenny Roberts arrived in Europe and proceeded to thrash the establishment, beating the Europeans at their own game and kicking the door open for a generation of racers who would go on to dominate the sport. Grand Prix Motorcycle Racers: The American Heroes profiles the lives and careers of the legendary riders who rewrote the world championship history books. Author Norm DeWitt, with input from the champions themselves, tells the story of Kenny Roberts, Freddie Spencer, Eddie Lawson, Wayne Rainey, Kevin Schwantz, Kenny Roberts Jr., and the most recent American title-winner, Nicky Hayden. With additional chapters profiling the American champions of World Superbike and the top American stars who competed in but never conquered the world championship, this book is a must-have for every motorcycle racing fan's library.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003chr class=\"ProductSectionSeparator\"\u003e \u003ch3\u003eOther Details\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"ProductDetailsGrid\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"DetailRow\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"Label\"\u003ePublisher Code:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"Value\"\u003e9780760334683\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"DetailRow\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"Label\"\u003eISBN 10:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"Value\"\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"DetailRow\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"Label\"\u003eISBN 13:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"Value\"\u003e9780760334683\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"DetailRow\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"Label\"\u003ePublished:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"Value\"\u003e2010\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"DetailRow\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"Label\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"Value\"\u003e155x235mm\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"DetailRow\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"Label\"\u003ePages:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"Value\"\u003e272\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"DetailRow\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"Label\"\u003eIllustrations:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"Value\"\u003eHard Bound, Colour ill\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"DetailRow\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"Label\"\u003eBarcode:\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"Value\"\u003e9780760334683\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Motorbooks","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47627995939036,"sku":"9780760334683","price":89.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0814\/8297\/3404\/files\/b19480b_grand_prix_motorcycle_racers__49231.1339460503.1280.1280.jpg?v=1772089527"},{"product_id":"haynes-motogp-source-book-sixty-years-world-championship-motorcycle-racing-p-5361-html","title":"MotoGP Source Book - Sixty Years of World Championship Motorcycle Racing","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSixty Years of World Championship Motorcycle Racing.

Spain-based DORNA became involved in motorcycle racing in 1992 and set about stabilising the ailing World Championship, which had run since 1949, and introducing a new era of direction and harmony, and of sporting and commercial success. The effect of DORNA's efforts is abundantly apparent in the present-day stature of MotoGP throughout the world. This book tells the entire story - of the racing itself and the DORNA backdrop to it - of those 25 years in a lively style that will appeal not only to those involved professionally in the sport but also its millions of fans world-wide.This is a remarkable behind-the-scenes insight, especially into those early days embracing the FIM (Federation Internationale de Motocyclisme), IRTA (International Road Racing Teams Association) and MSMA (Motorcycle Sport Manufacturers Association). The stories of the battles, the money and the involvement of Bernie Ecclestone are brilliantly divulged by the key players.

It was a nomadic existence that involved travelling from circuit to circuit, circus fashion, hence the title ‘Continental Circus.’\u003cbr\u003e The book begins with the pre-war period, when many young British riders travelled to the Continent to take part in the Grand Prix races, held from around 1920 and across Europe. British riders such as Alec Bennett, Stanley Woods, Jimmy Guthrie and many more, gained notable success and established their reputations on the European circuits. Moving on to the post-war era, the book details the riders from around the world who joined the Circus – self-financed ‘privateers’ from Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. The 1950s and ’60s were the days of the true Continental Circus, when private riders earned their living riding all over the continent. The book also covers the development of the machines that became the essential tools of the private riders, and the eventual demise of the Continental Circus in the 1970s, due to new safety regulations and the escalating cost of racing.\u003cbr\u003e Chris Pereira’s historical account is sourced both from first-hand experience of racing, and from his own vast library of racing history records and photographs.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndependent Reviews\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHardback • 25x20.7cm • 128 pages • 141 pictures\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAdditional Information\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePeriod Covered:\u003cbr\u003e 1920-1970\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Veloce Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47628521603292,"sku":"9781787112742","price":26.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0814\/8297\/3404\/files\/apinasppb__81972.1642581498.1280.1280.jpg?v=1772101256"},{"product_id":"motogp-season-review-2018-number-15","title":"MotoGP Season Review 2018 NUMBER 15","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor: Julian Ryder, ISBN: 9781527228276\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e, Hardcover, Annual Published in December 2018, \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout The Author:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eJulian Ryder is best known for his colourful and insightful style as a TV commentator on the BT Sport team, but he is also a prolific journalist and author.
