repair manual r80g/s
 

hello, i m looking for the official bmw r80g/s repair manual, edited by bmw, in french or english.
if you have it ...

thanx a lot
happy trails

apparently, there would be someone in la rochelle (france), he has it (in french for sure, maybe in english).
he s selling copies of the original book (280 pages around)
the more he has customers, the faster he goes to make the copies :

HAPPY TRAILS

Hi Vincent, I would be interested also, if it is the english version. How much for the copy?
Cheers, Peter

hello
here with a few friends, we sent an email to the guy doing the "business", no answer yet, i let you know.
we think it s a french copy, i m still searching for english copy on the web ... if anyone finds it ...
cheers

Vince,
Last I checked Capital Cycle in the USA had the original repair manual for sale and I bought one. $70usd. Just as handy is the part catalogue that motobins had for sale. I have both and use them all the time. The bindings fall apart. They are paperback size. Bill

bill,

thank you :-)
my search keeps going ...

latest news :
alec s. tell ms : clymer (i think, maybe spelling mistake) is excellent.

I have Clymer and Haynes manuals. They are both OK, but I think the original BMW would be much clearer about most repairs.

I have a english version of the original R80G/S workshop manual. If somoene is willing to host a site with this informatian or add it to thier site I can see if I can make a digital copy available.

Hi, I am not electronically savvy enough to figure out how to host the workshop manual, other than scanning it page by page and posting the photos somewhere...

But maybe someone like Grant could help us out.
