User manuals free to download

I stumbled across this russian site using a google 'index of' command to find a manual for a Honda XR 600. Most of the links seem to be ok, if the left column link is broken try the one in the middle column.

Update:
Index of /Manuals_pdf

4WD manuals here

also a tip for finding your manual is to enter the following in google search:

--> intitle:"index of" honda XR600 manual

obviously replace honda and XR600 with your model of choice. This search works for lots of other files too (including mp3s).

Here is a similar site for 4 wheeled vehicles

Интернет-магазин автозапчастей DETALI.RU - запчасти для любых иномарок.

The above link works but should read

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
