I got a copy of the OEM service manual for the GS that covers through the 05 model. If anyone needs a bit of info for it, feel free to PM me.
I'm thinking of scanning the whole thing to PDF and making it available. I don't want to screw the site out of a good source of revenue though, so I think I'd tell people to donate $3 to the site and then give them the link. Would anyone be interested in that?
Hmmmm.. Maybee Suzukis Copyright Attorneys would be interested in purchasing one ??? :lol: :lol: :lol:
I don't think they care all that much. The Haynes and Clymer manuals are all over teh interweb.
Yea.. Umm ok... You start charging $ for people to DL a copy.. Cash some of those checks and uuuuhh.. well .. Hope you like hunter orange jumpers
no, i'm not charging people to download it. I'm asking people to make a donation. I'm not profiting off of the manual, and the site owners aren't involved with me.
Plus, the donation isn't even mandatory.
where are these free clymers manuels? i still need one.
:)
Not sure about this but if it's just the bike manual it could be ok.
The right to have a copy of an instruction manual for a video etc goes with the ownership of the device, so we should all have a right to the GS500 instruction manual.
If your talking about the GS500 Workshop manual however that is a very different matter.
blah blah blah blah..
FINE. No service manual for anyone. Y'all can go pay $60 too. :nana:
I'd be up for it. I think it is a good idea. Of course there are always "moral police", but sometimes you gotta take a step back and look at what is moral. Proceed with what helps the most amount of people the most, while causing the least amount of grief. A few GS500 manuals to some GS enthusiasts isn't going to hurt anyone. It is no worse than making photocopies of sections of a book at a Library. I am sure we've all done that. Those of us that read anyway :lol:
