Lol...I kept my opinion about the illegal, bootleg, online downloadable manuals to myself...oops...anyway. Instead of bashing his choice, in my first post, I figured I give him a couple options to own the real deal. It didn't seem to bother the op. Apologies to the op if I derailed your thread. Ill be sure to keep my future post inline with Keith's forum rules. Rounders...you better go get an x-ray of your spine...yours appears to missing. Lol

 

You do got to laugh. What do these people do in the real world? Blow their whistle that the conversation is off line, and you need to stand down, until next conversation.

I wonder what they would do in a room full of men.

 

If blowing whistles when things go off line, we'd need earplugs when you post, your's are usually always off line......no, not usually, always.....

 

So talking about cheap paper manuals, when he asks about downloading manuals is travesty to you? Again what do you do in the real world? My guess is keep your mouth shut.
Go find a bar, with some men, and practive being around men. Tell your wife you are working late. Hide some clothes in your trunk. Change in the parking lot.

 

Well, ever hear the saying "when you mouth is open, your brain is on display"

 

I want it to displayed. Does your wife let you talk when you are out with your friends? Did she teach you to behave like this?

 

Some folks just gotta type I guess

 

What I did was set up a search on ebay so it would email me. Also just search once in awhile, plenty out there. I held out for ones in perfect shape.

 

Facebook has groups dedicated to "sharing" manuals. Search for "Harley PDF Manual Trade & Share".
Ask to Join the group and you'll find every manual since forever...

 

I like to make notes, wrench sizes, tips in mine. But they sure have gone up on price. used be less than $20. My skidoo manual was $160, I may or may not have resorted to illegal means.
