DYI manuals

Hate reading that PDF stuff so I printed out jetting and torque charts, owners, repair, and shock manuals. Put them together this week. Looks pretty cool.Image

Nice work. I'll pass the idea onto BetaUSA and see if they'll print some.

As part of their dealer kit BetaUSA supplied dealers a spiral bound parts fiche and price book - I love them for the same reasons I read magazines on paper :D

When I got my bike, I took the CD to a copy shop and had them print it out and fastened with Heavy Duty staples. Could have had them put in the plastic spiral things, but have not had much luck with that kind of thing. They also printed the front and rear page in extra heavy paper. Cost a lot tho, like $3.07 :D :D

I have everything on my iPad and iPhone, plus the NAS in my house with every other manual. I put two file cabinets of documents on disk. Easy to check specs, parts, and ping Steve from anywhere. :D

Great idea! So convenient just to keep a paper manual in the shop. Price is right too.

It does look nice. I think it would cost a fortune for me to print that on my Cannon ink jet, if the tiny ink cartridges would last! I need to find a real color printer on the network at work! Quick reference sheets taped on the cabinet door or wall are handy, like the jetting chart. Torque chart is spooky and needs to be redone.
