RE: Factory Service Manual available from Helm, Inc.
My understanding is that manuals have changed a bit since 1988. Apparently there is one volume that is referenced by all models and a second volume specific to each particular bike. Is this true?

I know there is a new "Common Service Manual" from Honda but I looked through the 61MGC00 and did not see any where that it asked to refer to it.

How much did you pay at the dealership for the Service Manual?

RE: Factory Service Manual available from Helm, Inc.
The dealer I bought it from I had a wholesale account with before I retired so they gave me a pretty good deal about $58.00 and they showed
their retail at $90.Like most Honda dealers in this area they inflate even
Honda's retail. I spent 9 years in one of the large Honda dealers as a
parts person before I went into business.

I just ordered one from the dealer yeasterday and it was around $74. Sounds like you got a good deal!

If you come to a fork in the road, take it!
