Motorcycle Repair Manuals Deliver Step-by-Step Instructions on Maintenance, Tune-ups, and Troubleshooting

Motorcycle mania is in full swing in North America as manufacturers continue to launch new and more powerful superbikes, debut nostalgic models, and watch sales skyrocket. To help maintain and repair these popular two-wheeled transports, Haynes Manuals publishes a wide-ranging selection of easy-to-use motorcycle repair manuals.

From BMW Superbikes and Harley Big Twins, to Honda CBR1100s, Ducati 996s, Kawasaki Ninjas and Yamaha VMX1200 V-Max models, Haynes has a manual to cover most of the popular motorcycle models. Not only ideal for high-performance superbikes and cruisers, Haynes titles are perfect for motocross and trail bikes, as well as ATVs and scooters. Each of these comprehensive guides outlines the basic components and engine configurations of the particular models including Singles, Twins, Triples, V-Twins, Fours and Sixes.

From the introductory pages on buying spare parts, decoding manufacturers’ VIN numbers, choosing and fitting accessories and routine maintenance, the chapters cover engine, clutch and gearbox maintenance and repair. Any DIYer can find just what they are looking for on the bike’s fuel system, proper component lubrication, plus ignition and electrical systems, complete with helpful and detailed wiring diagrams. These manuals offer tips on troubleshooting and correcting problems with frame, forks, wheels, brakes and tires, and include a detailed index to help find the specific information quickly and easily when needed.

In addition to Haynes’ standard motorcycle repair manuals, many of its motorcycle titles are now in Superbike format, which offer numerous extra features including color sections for wiring diagrams, performance data, model history tools and workshop tips.

What sets Haynes Manuals apart is the attention to detail that goes into the production of each book. Every manual is written from hands-on experience based on a complete teardown, which is the step-by-step procedure of dismantling a particular vehicle part by part. This is followed by the detailed rebuilding of the specific model it documents. Writing each manual takes 30 man-weeks, with authors working as teams to shorten the production time and avoid fatigue during the difficult process. Hundreds of photographs accompany each manual’s step-by-step instructions. The books are written from the actual experience of Haynes’ own expert personnel using only a basic set of tools and presented in a style that any DIYer can follow, even a beginner.


Haynes, world-leading publisher of automotive and motorcycle repair manuals, is renowned for teaching millions of owners how to carry out routine maintenance and repairs. For more than 40 years, Haynes has been dismantling vehicles--and putting them back together again. Only in this unique ''hands on'' way can its Haynes and Chilton brand repair manuals provide authoritative and step-by-step information on both basic and complex tasks. John H.
