As some of you may be aware,
I am currently writting my thesis on motorcycle aerodynamics focusing on historic motorcycles, (1920 up untill 1960 ish) Therefore I need to read about it, and know a fair amount about it, before I can start writting about it, I have a lot of SAE papers on modern motorcycle aerodynamics, and a few articals from journals and magazines on bits and bobs.
Does anyone have any recommendations as to other places to look / people to talk to / books to read?
(And yes my project does already mention vincents twice in the first 8 pages - once on the design intent of a black knight, the second, a breif mention of vincent bonneville racing in streamlinners (and bathing suites) this is due to there almost ideal teardrop Cd values of around 0.01.
thanks
