She manages to convey her love of the sport and impart a large amount of valuable information using a writing style that is both easy to understand and pleasant to read. As befits a librarian, the book is full of references which will allow those who desire to study a particular subject in depth to do so easily.

Savy Indeed Savy Guide to Motorcycles, is a very smartly writen and well composed book that any beginner and expert rider can relate to and gain knowledge from.The book is a nice compilation of Shirls' experience as well as her fellow riders. I especially liked the points of references that encourage you to do your own research. I have read many motorcycle books and a few were rather dry, but I found this book to be very refreshing. Good job.
Excellent Source for New Riders The Savvy Guide to Motorcycles is a well-written narrative by an author that has real-life experience riding motorcycles. Shirley Kennedy relates much of her material to her own experiences, giving this book a personal touch as well as believability.
The book is broken into logical sections and well illustrated. The author includes a number of sidebars with data that supports her text. There is a useful glossary and an impressive bibliography included to enhance the reader's understanding of the subject. The layout is clean and well structured.
As a motorcyclist with several years experience I appreciated the way the book advances each theme. Ms. Kennedy avoids boring the experienced rider while structuring her material so a new motorcyclist can understand it easily.
I highly recommend "The Savvy Guide to Motorcycles" to anyone that rides (or wishes to ride) motorcycles!
