When this comprehensive volume of practical information was first published in the 1920s, hundreds of thousands of motorcycles were already in use. Written by a talented automotive and aviation pioneer, the profusely illustrated, easy-to-read book was one of the first exhaustive studies done on motorcycle operation and repair, offering advice on everything from mufflers and automatic oil pumps to batteries and timing values.
Following an introductory chapter on motorcycle development and design, the profusely illustrated text covers, among other subjects, various engines and power plants; theories of lubrication and carburetor design; materials employed in clutches; gear types and chain drives; frame parts, tires, and sidecars; standard motorcycle maintenance; and complete instructions for overhauling the engine. Also included is a complete chapter on the most up-to-date motorcycles of 1920. Immensely popular when it first appeared in print, Early Motorcycles will appeal just as much to today's collectors of antique cycles, dealers, and riders.

Recommended by my veterinarian
Size: Small (Pack of 1), Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
My veterinarian recommended the red Kong as a chew toy. I’d been buying my 13 lb, now 7 yrs old dachshund the flavored nylabone chew toy products “for aggressive chewers” since he was about a year old. He loves them and would chew them daily. All seemed well. On his last checkup the veterinarian even said that his mouth looked good, but we both could see that there was a brown tartar buildup on his back teeth. Since our veterinarian’s practice has one veterinarian who has dental training, I decided to arrange for a teeth cleaning for my dog. Unfortunately, although none of us expected it, once the tartar was removed from the back teeth it was clear that the teeth had cracks. One large tooth was even chipped down to where we could see the pulp! (Yes, I did note that he occasionally would suddenly squeal when chewing his nylabone, but I thought it was because he’d hit one of the sharp points on a well-chewed nylabone.) The vet recommended that two of the teeth be removed while the dog was still asleep. Then he recommended the red Kong chews for him and said that he would never recommend the nylabone for any dog. They are just too hard and he’s seen too many dogs (of all sizes) end up with cracked and chipped teeth that he (the vet) thinks could have been avoided. He recommended the red Kong for my small dog. The black Kong chew toys are harder and more suited for larger breed aggressive chewers. So far my dachshund is satisfied with chewing the Kong, so that’s what I’ll be buying from now on.

Withstands big dog
Color: Green Cactus
As a dog mom to two active pups, I’ve gone through a LOT of chew toys over the years and honestly, many of them just didn’t hold up. Some cracked, broke apart quickly, or became rough after only a short time of chewing. That’s why I was genuinely impressed with the MewaJump chew toy. Both of my dogs immediately loved it, and what stood out most to me was how durable it’s been compared to other toys we’ve tried. It’s held up really well with aggressive chewing while still seeming safe and comfortable for them to use. I also love that it keeps them entertained and engaged longer without constantly worrying about pieces breaking off. Definitely one of the better dog toys we’ve added to our home lately and Molly and Piper would agree.

Not recommended for strong chewers.
Color: Green Cactus
There was nothing wrong with this. But my dog is an absolute destroyer. She makes it her personal mission to annihilate any toy I buy. This did not last 30 minutes. Very cute and good for normal dogs that like to actually have toys to play with. Do not recommend for strong jaw destroyers.
