Repair, Service manuals, wiring diagrams, caruburetor specifications
and other helpful documents
This page will be dedicated to any service or repair info I have in my library. This page will always be changing as I add or update more information to it. Most information will be images or scans of documents, service manuals and other repair literature that I find helpful. I have gotten a lot of requests for certain things like wiring diagrams, tuning procedures, carburetor specifications that can only be reliably found in printed documents. The service specifications listed here covers many popular and obscure Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, and Kawasaki motorcycles. Also some information can apply to Chinese "clone" engines from ATVs, pit bikes and scooters that use the popular Honda horizontal and vertical engines. As I come across common questions or requests I may posts visual documents here. Use this information as you wish and I accept no liability for it's use. Captions below describe the information or models it covers. The information posted here is at random and with no cataloging. Click to view a larger image. Scroll down for some downloadable files. If you have a request please leave a comment at the bottom of the page and I will do my best to find and post it, but no guarantees ;) Use the search bar to aid in finding information.
