  • ebay parts manual cd's?

    Is there any worth to them. There are a few on ebay for all the Yamaha XS models. Im interested in it, but not sure if its gonna be worth the money. Have any of you used them?

    Thanks

    CD

    I have one. I do not have a paper manual I just use the lap top out in the shop or print the page I need. The CD I have has all of the Yamaha manuals on it and the aftermarket books also. There are some other generic instruction manuals included.

      Parts is Parts!

      Hey Wingnut,

      I think what you're talking about is RokJok's XS/XJ manual on CD.

      What Bauer is talking about are CD's that proport to provide the parts lists and cross listing of OEM #'s of parts and tell you what model bike they are on, so that when you're looking for an OEM part, you may be able to find it by being able to find a different bike in a salvage yard etc. other than the one you have with the needed same part on it!? We won't need them though, since Lamric has the XS parts Finder website, which does what these CD's do, provides a cross reference to help find parts from other bikes!
