Mine arrived in the mail today too! (I ordered it via this site, btw john :) )

It looks great - covers everything, which is good because I've had bad luck with mechanics and have decided to do my own repairs.

YOU know you are a true clymer user/mechanic/gs-owner when your clymer is covered in oil stains and stinks of gasoline and 40 weight. :thumb:

Title: Clymer Manual

When I did the turbo bike, the clymer manual I had was invaluable.  not only did it show me what it was supposed to look like, but it provided me with diagrams that allowed me to modify the oil system and electrical harness the way i wanted.

We thank you for using our link :thumb:

In my humble opinion the Clymer repair manual is the best -so thourough and so many revisions now that it is spot on accurate as best I can tell.  Truly an encyclopedia with all the titbits of info it contains :thumb:

Thanks again, that manual link isn't as popular as it used to be but still helps  :thumb:  :cheers:
