PDF manual for 84 thru 86 XT600 USA version

[steveloomis]

I have acquired a Genuine Yamaha Service Manual for the USA version 84-87 XT600 standard model.

When I find time, I am going to scan it into a PDF. I see a need for it as I searched far and wide for a PDF manual and NEVER found one exactly for my bikes. I know there are many similarities across the models but I wanted an EXACT manual, not a poor Clymer manual.

If any are in need of one, post here and I will try and honor your requests in time. I will offer it to this and other forums for their archive as well.

I am NOT a Bored Westerner as one alluded to here but genuinely wish to help my fellow enthusiasts.

Nice one Steve.

When it's been scanned, you will need to upload it on to a server so that it can be easily downloaded. Anyone with a website can do it easily for nothing, they just need a minute amount of unused server disk space.

I wonder if Moto Andalucia might very kindly oblige you? Their free download page is truly superb.

I will be most happy to add the link to the manual/part sticky's on this sub-forum.

As you say, it's in everyone's interest to contribute.

Might be a big job scanning every single page.

Good Idea. when I was looking I couldn't find any either, so I just bought my own hardcopy. Since I am bored I have the time to page through it
If everyone would quit buying those Clymers and Haynes they would go away I have no good use for them.

I don't know if its already been done, but many manuals can be found here
Motorcycle service manuals for download, free!

I visited there when I was looking, not much for US models and many were in a foreign language to boot.

Did you check all the way through the manual for an English translation?

Yep, they just don't have the US versions.
