172 pages, and more than 140 illustrations and charts, size 8.25 x 10.75 inches. Owners of Norton Commando motorcycles are subjected to considerable confusion surrounding the selection of an appropriate workshop manual from the multitude of originals and reprints that have recently flooded the on-line marketplace. Many of the reprints found on internet websites are from 'bedroom sellers' at enticingly low prices by individuals that really have no idea what they are selling. Many are nothing more than poor quality comb-bound photocopies that are scanned and printed complete with greasy pages and thumbprints and, as such, are deceptively described as 'pre-owned'. In addition, they are often advertised for the incorrect series and/or model years of motorcycles. The Norton Commando model range is especially subjected to incorrect identification by these 'bedroom sellers' and you are encouraged to read the paragraph below to help identify the correct manual for your model.During the 1968 to 1978 Commando model run there were 4 different manuals published by the factory: The original 52 page 750cc manual (part number 06-3062) is applicable to the 1968 to1970 models ONLY that were fitted with the external rev-counter drive and/or the Atlas style exhaust (refer to ISBN 9781588502421). This original manual was followed by part number 06-3419 which covers the 1970 to1973 750cc models ONLY. The next, and most comprehensive manual, part number 06-5146, was published in 1973 and the 850cc data was added making this manual applicable to the entire range of 750cc & 850cc models from 1970 to 1975. Finally, with the introduction of the electric start, left side gear change, rear disc brake Mark 3 models in 1975, a separate manual part number 00-4224 was published which is specific to the 1975 to 1978 MKIII 850cc series from engine no. 325001 & frame no. F125001.We are pleased to offer this reproduction of the Factory Workshop Manual 06-5146 to owners of the 1970 through 1975 models and we hope that the explanation above removes any doubt regarding which manual is correct for a particular series of Norton Commando model.Models and model years covered in this manual are: Interstate: 745cc 1972-1973 & 828cc 1973-1975Roadster: 745cc 1970-1973 & 828cc 1973-1975Hi-rider: 745cc 1971-1973 & 828cc 1973-1975Interpol: 745cc 1970-1973 & 828cc 1973-1975Fastback: 745cc 1970-1973Fastback LR (Long Range): 745cc 1971-1972S Type: (Scrambler) 745cc 1970SS Type (Street Scrambler): 745cc 1970-1971IMPORTANT: Owners of 1968-1970 750cc Commando models are directed to our workshop manual ISBN 9781588502421 and owners of the later MKIII models would require our 1975-1978 manual ISBN 9781588502445.VelocePress.com has been publishing reprints of motorcycle and automobile manuals since 2003 and our publications have earned excellent reviews worldwide so you can be assured you are purchasing a quality product.

140 pages, and more than 140 illustrations and charts, size 8.25 x 10.75 inches. The original Norton factory "Twin Cylinder" workshop manual contained maintenance and repair data for both the lightweight and heavyweight Norton twins manufactured between 1960 and 1968, including the 750cc Atlas model, which was in production from 1962-1968. As many of the mechanical attributes from the Atlas series were carried over into the early Norton Commando models, we felt that the original "Twin Cylinder" manual was somewhat lacking as it did not include repair data for the early Commando that evolved from the Atlas. Consequently, we have updated and expanded this Floyd Clymer edition of the original "Twin Cylinder" manual to include the OEM Norton manual (part no. 06-3062) for the 1968-1970 Commando 750cc models that were fitted with the Atlas style exhaust and external rev-counter drive to the timing cover (Beginning with engine no. 126125 - February 1968) and the early camshaft driven contact breaker models (from engine no. 131257 - March 1969). While there is some duplication between the Atlas and Commando repair information, we felt that the Commando manual should be included in its entirety in order to 'complete' the coverage of the original "Twin Cylinder" manual from 1960 through the 1970 model year. It should also be noted that this manual includes significant maintenance and repair information for the AMC Norton/Matchless G15 hybrids that were manufactured from 1963-1967, engine numbers 107388 to 124371.IMPORTANT NOTE: Many of the reprints found on internet websites are from 'bedroom sellers' at enticingly low prices by individuals that really have no idea what they are selling. Many are nothing more than poor quality comb bound photocopies that are scanned and published complete with greasy pages and thumbprints and, as such, are deceptively described as 'pre-owned'. In addition, they are often advertised for the incorrect series and/or model years of motorcycles. However, VelocePress.com has been publishing licensed reprints of motorcycle and automobile manuals since 2003 and our publications have earned excellent reviews worldwide so you can be assured you are purchasing a quality product.We are pleased to offer this combined reprint of the Factory "Twin Cylinder" and "Commando" (06-3062) Workshop manuals.

With 340 pages, and more than 500 illustrations and charts, size 8.25 x 10.75 inches, this is possibly the most complete workshop manual for the Alfa Romeo 750 & 101 series of automobiles. It includes: A reprint of the September 1958 factory Workshop Manual (No.637). The 12-page 'Transmission Appendix' from the December 1957 manual (No.611). The 15-page 1962 'Enclosure to the Shop Manual-Technical Characteristics' (No.854) plus the 1963 and 1964 'Technical Characteristics' publications for the 1600cc models (27 pages). Introduced in 1954, the initial 750 Series Giulietta was replaced by the 101 Series Giulietta in 1959. Both the 750 and 101 models were powered by a 1300cc (1290cc) engine. The engine capacity was increased in 1962 with the introduction of a 1600cc (1570cc) unit. Co-incident with this engine update, the Giulietta name was changed to Giulia, although they still retained their original 101 Series designation. From 1962 onwards, the updated Giulietta continued to be sold under the Giulia name until they were replaced by the all-new 105 Series Giulia-based models in 1965. As the predominance of the basic mechanical components of the 750 and 101 models remained unchanged during their 1954-1965 production run, the original Giulietta workshop manual was considered adequate and the factory supplemented it with the publication of 'Technical Characteristics' booklets (1963 & 1964) that updated the Factory manual with technical data specific to the 1600cc equipped cars. Timeline of the English language manuals issued by the Alfa factory for the 750 & 101 Series Giulietta and Giulia models: The first English language Workshop Manual (Part No.577 - 600 copies) was issued in May 1957 and it consisted of 14 individual booklets in a ring binder. In addition, a separate booklet numbered 15 was added a little later that was identified as 'Special Repair Data for the 'Sprint Veloce, Spider and Super Spider'.In December 1957, Alfa issued 1000 copies of a softbound workshop manual (Part No.611) that combined the booklets from the May 1957 publication into a single volume. It should be noted that booklet 14 'Special Tools and Equipment' was omitted from this edition and that the images are of poor quality. In September 1958, another 1000 copies of a softbound single volume manual (Part No.637) was issued and the images in this manual are almost photo quality. This edition also included the previously missing 'Special Tools' section. However, for some unknown reason the 12-page appendix to the transmission section from the December 1957 edition was omitted. This same part number (637) was reprinted by the factory in September 1961 (1000 copies). Finally, in November 1962, Alfa issued 2000 copies of a 15-page booklet 'Enclosure to the Shop Manual - Technical Characteristics' (Part No.854). This booklet expanded the technical data for the 1300cc models that was previously included in 'Technical Specifications' section of both the ring bound and softbound workshop manuals. However, in 1962, the Giulietta sport models: Sprint, Sprint Special and Spider were fitted with the new 1600cc engine and the Giulietta Series 101 name was dropped but they continued to be sold under the Giulia name (as 101 Series vehicles) until they were replaced by the all-new 105 Series Giulia-based models in 1965. Consequently, for the sake of completeness, the 20-page October 1963 'Technical Characteristics' booklet (Part No. 955 -1000 copies) for the 1600cc Giulia Ti, Spider & Sprint and the 7-page October 1964 'Technical Characteristics' for the Giulia Spider Veloce should be a required addition to this list of manuals for the 750 and 101 Series models.

Those 400 photos illustrate a series of hands-on projects done for both hot rods as well as classic and vintage automobiles. Side bars and interviews with famous wheelers and fabricators from around the world help by giving personal insights. The craftsmen share tips that these masters have learned - during their decades of polishing the art of creating elaborate shapes from flat sheets of aluminum and steel. Long-time student of the English wheel, published author and retired shop teacher, William Longyard is ideally suited to provide the best information and most productive tips about using the English wheel.

Für manchen überraschend, beginnt im Zentrum von Palma de Mallorca eine Schmalspurbahn mit 914 mm Spurweite. Der Tren de Soller, wie die Ferrocarril de Soller im Volksmund heißt, durchquert auf seiner Fahrt im Westen von Mallorca erst ausgedehnte Mandel- und Olivenhaine und dann mittels 13 Tunneln das Tramuntana-Gebirge, bevor er im Tal der Orangen von Soller seinen Endpunkt erreicht. Dieses erste Buch der Reihe "Immer an der Bahn lang" zeigt anhand von 44 Fotos und 19 Karten Wanderwege auf denen man den Orangenexpress immer wieder sehen und fotografieren kann. Die Wege sind dabei so gewählt, dass man auch die wunderschöne Umgebung von Deia, Port de Soller, Soller und Bunyola erleben kann. Eine gute Ergänzung für jeden, der Mallorca auch einmal anders "erfahren" und neue Wege beschreiten will. Dabei geht es nicht um die Anzahl der Kilometer, sondern um Spaß am Zusammenspiel von Bahn und Natur. Zeit zu haben zum Genießen und Warten (auch auf den nächsten Zug). Zahlreiche QR-Codes erleichtern die Orientierung. Man kann sich so mit Hilfe von GPS-Handhelds oder Smartphone im Gelände, auf der Route orientieren und findet zielsicher die Fotopunkte. Einige Fotos beinhalten auch QR-Codes, mit deren Hilfe Videos zu diesem Fotopunkt abgerufen werden können. Ein Beispiel dazu befindet sich auf dem Cover. Viel Spaß beim NachwandernM.
