interesting book doug towsley Interesting book, better than i expected as Falco is a well known blowhard and forum troll, However this is a very useful book and I DO APPRECIATE the work that went into it. great resource, i only gave it 4 stars out of five because while a great book, it wasnt quite as comprehensive as i had hoped, would have been perfect to have some good tech articles and tips in there as many of us are trying to learn how to build . "not what I expected" according to john shuck. not a lot of new info, but a great magazine articles. Kind of a rehash without a lot of useful information. A little overpriced. phillip r brown said a must for BSA GOLD STAR fan. this book was very well researched .I highly recommend it to any one who like the BSA GOLD STAR. so much facts that I didn't know.
