Actually .pdf stands for "portable document format" which was invented and popularized by Adobe for their Acrobat program. Smart marketers to give away their Acrobat Reader for free.
Which reminds me, I should update my copy of Acrobat some day soon....

Wow . i didnt know there would be any info on the Lawson build.I thought that book came out before that. Damb , i should have ordered it as well and saved on the shipping. I was just beeing too cheap.Had i know it had detailed kz info i would have ordered it for sure.
Is there a lot of info on how to build up a kz motor?

First off, I never asked for a damn thing.

Same time, it would be nice to have some excerpts here and there from this author on subject matters that come up. A paragraph here or there with reference to the book could be a benefit to us all. BTW, which is 100% legal.

yes there is more 70-80s superbike stuff than i would have thought...the book sarts kinda wheere mr camerons carreer starts with the early two stoke giant killers...and moves up to 2006...but yeah he talks about muzzy(one whole chapter) and kz motors and tour mujzzy's shop in written word in the middle of one of the lawson seasons..pointing out piles of kz development parts....picking somthing up and them talking about what they learned from the build on that part...methodology is the theory he follows ...the whole book kinda covers how if you can think it and explore the possibilties ..then build it....ride it....tune it...but to think and mentally do it first...i guess.... i don't know... i'm a vegg ..but to me it was like finding some lost never heard jimi hendrix allbum...i'm enjoying it ..peace

Thank you for your clarifying post quoted above, Old Man Rock.
I stand corrected for assuming that your rather brief original post was a request to trianglelaguna to copy the entire book.
I'll be sure to treat your posts with more circumspection in the future.

but to think and mentally do it first

Yep, IMO KC is about the smartest guy to ever write about bikes in general....plus he explains things so that the "average" guy can understand 'em. A rare talent indeed.
