"In this fully illustrated and in-depth new study of one of the greatest of motorcycle racers, Mick Walker reassesses John Surtees’s remarkable record and explores the background to his achievement. In the late 1950’s John Surtees was the dominate rider in top-level British and European motorcycle racing. A precocious talent, he began riding competitively on Vincents in the early 1950’s, then REGs and NSUs and Nortons A precocious talent, he began riding competitively on Vincents in the early 1950’s, then REGs and NSUs and Nortons. The technical side of Surtees’s career - the bikes he rode and his considerable skills as a mechanic and engineer - is covered in detail. The book gives a fascinating insight into the intense motivation that often gave Surtees the edge over his rivals and laid the foundation for the success that followed.
