Gary Bailey's How To Win Motocross is the vintage 1974 paperback that first put pro-racer secrets into everyday riders' hands. Across 190 pages, Bailey breaks down starts, cornering, jumping and bike set-up with clear diagrams and trackside photos aimed at both young adults and adult motocross devotees.
This 1970s HP Books reference belongs on any motorcycle sports shelf. Its era-correct styling and straightforward coaching still help riders shave seconds off lap times while reminding collectors of American motocross's formative years.
The used copy shows typical racetrack wear: scuffed covers, light edge chipping to page 1, occasional dog-eared corners, yet the binding is tight and pages are clean and smoke-free. It's a ready-to-use rider's manual, not a pristine showpiece.
An affordable first edition for fans of Gary Bailey, classic dirt bikes, or motorsport technology looking for practical skills straight from the golden age of motocross.
