SRX 600 Manual
« on: February 07, 2008, 07:41:15 PM »
I have just bought a manual for my SRX. It was described on ebay as " YAMAHA SRX SRX600 genuine service manual- not Haynes" It appears to me to be a photocopy and I was wondering if any has an real "Yamaha" manual. If you do have one, do the pictures and diagrams have black areas which are difficult to decipher? Cheers Mart

Sounds like my genuine manual. Apparently they are printed from a fiche, hence the poor quality.

Yeah Honda do that too, especially for the older models although their quality is generally not too bad.

If its the mono-shock SRX model you have, then I have a genuine hard copy manual. Its written in Japanese, but hey, pictures and nukbers are universal. Cost me a mere £50 from BAT motorcycles 8 years ago.

Many thanks for all the replies chaps. I will now have to decide wether to return it or not. Bits of it are unreadable but some of it will be quite useful. Cheers Mart.

Evening Mart,

I can supply in a plain brown envelope for a donation to Team Thumper, an SRX manual on a CD-ROM in pdf format. Apart from a scanning glitch in section 3, page 5, all images are readable and I use it in conjuction with the spare parts details on SRX600.net.

I'll leave the donation to yourself upon receipt and viewing of the images of the scan.

My regards, Bill.

Many thanks for the offer Bill. I already have that item but hoped for a decent set of pictures to open on the workbench. Cheers mart

I have just compared the PDF vesion with the paper manual. The duff pictures are the same ones throughout. In fairness the seller did offer me a full refund so no complaints. I decided to keep the paper one as it is easier to read in the shed. Mart.

Mart, did you get home ok on Sunday?  Pat mentioned that he'd seen you attending to a sticky caliper.

Yes thank you Graham, I just had to open one bleed nipple a smidge to release excess pressure. It is the second time it has happened. Both times Boyd was in tow so I think it is his fault. I shall give the callipers a service and insert the Stringbean SS pistons at the same time. They will probably never work again. MTF
