Ricky Burns has been an avid restorer of motorcycles since the 1970s, having personally restored many classic motorbikes from that era - small Yamaha 2-strokes all the way up to large multi-cylinder machines. Deciding to share his experience and knowledge of classic motorcycle restoration with like-minded enthusiasts, Ricky penned his first book, Beginners guide to motorcycle restoration which was quickly followed by several other restoration guides. Aiming to connect with all the classic off-road enthusiasts out there, he has now dedicated his evenings to off-road motorcycle restoration, and in doing so creating this book.
