Excellent shop and How-too manual. I have used Haynes manual frequesntly over the years and found them to be quite useful. Recommend to the casual mechanic for simple tasks and in conjuction with other manuals for the more complex, in order to get a more complete examination of what is needed. An excellent tool for your motorcycle shop library.
Buy the Clymer manual instead: it is far more comprehensive and much better illustrated. The modest extra cost is well worth paying!
I purchased this book for my husband. He believes this is a great book for anyone that owns a BMW Twin Motorcycle to add to your collection for any work you might want to do on your own bike.
This is about the 25th Haynes Manual I’ve collected over the past 20+ years. The details and accuracy are excellent. It’s a high quality hard-bound book. In my experience, the Haynes Manuals are about the best out there, short of the factory service manuals. I have them for nearly every car I’ve owned in the last 20-30 years as well as most of my friends vehicles. Excellent value.
The purpose of the purchase of the Haynes manual was to get maintenance information on a particular model, the R65, such as fluid capacities, the location of the oil filter, wiring chart, etc. It is quite informative on these matters, with useful photos. Rob Real
Haynes manuals are generally well thought out and illustrated based on a complete tear-down and expert rebuild. Haynes has been doing this for many diverse vehicles from cars motos and tractors for many years and have developed an excellent formula for presenting this information so it is useful to all owners from never get your hands dirty to expert mechanics. For me it is presented in a more intelligible format than other manuals eg. Chilton and even factory shop manuals, for this amateur mechanic.
When I received the Haynes BMW service and repair manual I was surprised and pleased to find it much improved over the older versions. More diagrams, photos, and better explanations. Excellent manual.
Great detailed information. Good repair manual. Always good to have a copy in the shop. Clear technical drawings and charts.
Detailed manual well printed and presented. I used to repair the brakes of my BMW R65 bike and help me a lot. Recommend it for anyone wanting to have a source of info for bike repair and maintenance.
Good basic guidance to repair and maintenance of a wide variety of R bikes. Even includes obscure R65-specific material.
