Usually around $10 on Ebay for a paper copy. Might be old fashioned, but I find it better to have paper over downloaded.
Great to keep these old 'Wings flying on down the road.

We used to share them years ago but then Honda and Helm inc started going after sites that were breaking their copyright laws. So we had to take them down.

Its been over a year since the last post so I figured I'd ask if anybody has updated information about downloadable owner's manuals for Goldwings.

Sorry if my question has caused offence, but things found on google are the reason I just spend $185 this week getting rid of a virus I got from google downloads.

Including the specific bike that you want documents for might trigger a member to send you a link. BTW, Clymer and Haynes are good kindling, but poor manuals.

I have been an auto mechanic since the 19and70's. Regarding Clymer and Haynes, it has always been thus.

Specifically, I will be buying a running, low mileage GL1200. If I can, I will be avoiding a bagger and no basket case for the project I'm working on.

If you want a neckid GL1200, look for a 1984 standard. They all have Tupperware after that.

'Tis true, but there are some advantages to the later years, as some parts are '84 only. It's not terribly difficult to nekkidize the 1200's with a bit of ingenuity...
