About the Author

Chris was born in Oxford and grew up in a family devoted to all things mechanical, but especially engines and motorbikes. He owned his first bike aged 11 – a Raleigh Runabout – quickly followed by a couple of scooters. When he turned 16, he realised his dream of becoming a 'Biker' … on a Casals moped!
From these humble beginnings, his love of British bikes blossomed, owning and rebuilding a BSA Starfire, a Triumph T100, a Matchless G3LS, and a Bonneville T140V – before he finally returned to his teenage dream: the Triumph Trident.
Chris’s experiences in restoring the Triumph Trident, a Kawasaki Z1, and a Norton Commando have led him to write three Enthusiast Restoration Guides, published by Veloce, as well as an `Essential Buyer’s Guide”.

Reviews

What we especially like is the friendly, everyday tone ... It's said that a little knowledge is a dangerous thing. Well if so, you're in pretty safe hands here. Recommended. Sump I would have no hesitation in recommending that every shed or garage that contains an early Trident or Rocket III should also contain this book. Old Bike Mart this book could be a time, money and frustration-saving asset. Ultimate MotorCycling A definite asset for any Trident or Rocket 3 owner. Real Classic From reassembling the primary chaincase to refitting the electrics, it looks like everything you'd need is in here. Bike Rider Magazine
