Mark Paxton has spent his adult life repairing and restoring vehicles ranging from humble mopeds up to large trucks. He has written extensively about the process in classic car and motorcycle magazines along with eight other books published by Veloce. The latest project to fall under his spanners is the Triumph 750 twin, the ideal entry point into the world of classic British bikes. In it he examines the realities of resurrecting one of these iconic twins, the good, the bad and the downright frustrating.
