Motorcycle Factory Service Manual A good service manual is invaluable to the shade-tree mechanic. To me, working on my motorcycles is almost as enjoyable, and therapeutic, as riding them. Here we have a factory Yamaha manual. To be honest, I have had factory manuals with which I was less than impressed. I often prefer aftermarket manuals like those made my Chilton, because they seem more geared to the common user.

However, I have had a Yamaha factory manual (for a YZF1000 that I used to own), and I was very impressed. The manual was thorough, complete, and useable. That usability factor is the key to a good manual. Some factory-produced manuals are too technical and too focused for use by factory-trained technicians. That is not what I found with my manual produced by Yamaha. Yes, it covered things that I would never do myself, but it was written to all skill levels.

This manual will include all the information needed for the full spectrum of repairs. Of course, it will cover basic maintenance such as oil changes and chain adjustments. However, it will also cover more advanced service information such as valve adjustments and even complete overhauls. Obviously, the user will have to decide what level of service he or she is capable of tackling. If you plan on working on your motorcycle, get a good manual. This Yamaha manual is a good one.
