Description

The Harley-Davidson XR-750 has dominated dirt-track racing for over two decades, with an impressive record of victories that continues to this day. First introduced in 1970 as a replacement for the aging KR model, the XR-750 underwent significant development and redesign before its introduction in 1972, featuring aluminum heads and barrels. This book provides a detailed technical analysis of the motorcycle, including specifications, modifications, innovations, and aftermarket components. It also tells the story of the men who designed, tuned, and raced the XR-750, highlighting their engineering skills, riding abilities, and tuning secrets that contributed to its success. With over 300 photos, the book offers a comprehensive look at the XR-750's history on dirt tracks, streets, and road-race circuits. Written by Allan Girdler, a former Cycle World editor and author of several books on Harley-Davidson racing, this book brings together technical writing and colorful storytelling to create an engaging and informative account of the XR-750's story.
