Jammer's Handbook #9 1980 Harley Davidson- Honda and Kawasaki, Cover done by David Mann. Contains parts, articles and Tech. Includes Dave Mann Poster Features: Some of the Best: 100 Bikes Shown; Foxy Followers: Ladies you Will Love; Speed, Show & Stock: Your Kind of Parts; A Whole New World: On any Day; Parts For the Pavement: Thousands of 'Em; Chasin' Speed: Four Years at Bonneville; Dave Mann's Changes: Picture Perfect; 80 pages in Color Back in the day, before internet forums, before eBay and Amazon, the Jammer's Handbook served as bination mail order catalog, reference book, and how to manual for chopper enthusiasts. They were put out by Cycle Jammer Products of Burbank, CA, who developed and sold a huge assortment of their own products, plus a variety of other brands. When this handbook came out in 1980 there was no way to manipulate pictures and cut and paste in puter. However, thanks to the copious scale drawing of their parts inside, you could cut and paste for real, and be able to see what your chopper was going to look like. Inside you will find scale representations of different lengths and styles of fork, and different sized wheels, different style seats, tanks, and exhausts. Why are scale drawings so important? Because for proper highway jamming it is important to have the right geometry, and you can measure rake and trail and adjust for it with scale drawings. Of course, for many builders, I'm sure these were just as useful to get the look right with paint, seat, tank, exhaust, etc. mock-ups. But, the handbook does stress the proper geometry and how to get it. Wiring Diagrams: These R. Crumb cartoon-ish wiring diagrams are what got the Jammer's Handbook on my radar in the first place. For some reason, seeing the bike represented in this manner, with stylized versions of the horn, light, switches, distributor, etc. really make it easy to understand. This edition includes 15 Harley-Davidson configurations. Stroking it Properly: These days, guys just walk up to the parts and accessories counter and order a bigger motor, but back in the day you had to stroke it yourself. In order to get more power you would take your factory 74" motor, modify a set of flywheels from a 80" flathead motor, and build a stroker. The Jammer handbook gives you a whole rundown of how to stroke it, lighten the flywheels, add big valves, install a hot cam, and everything else you need to have a real powerful motor that will rip your arms off.
