The other one i have got is called
YAMAHA RD250/350lcs
performance portforlio 1980-1996 & is by Brooklands books
In this book there are loads of old road tests & write ups from from the early 80s through to 2000 so a lot of it is in black & white still a good read tho & would make prezzy

Ahh yes I remember those books, they did all the bikes and cars from old mags. The quality could be a bit hit n miss depending on how they were scanned / copied, but yep well worth it for a good read i reckon. As you say, a good xmas day pressie for sitting in a corner away from the family, slightly pissed up and full of xmas dinner... perfect!
