Author Message   Bbbob Posted on Saturday, May 17, 2008 - 06:19 pm:        I'm getting ready to tackle some basic upkeep on my '99 X1(dealer labor rates are silly). Oil & Primary oil change, new plugs, etc. I'm not completely ignorant (I can identify a wrench in a line-up) Is there any books that fill the void between the owner's manual & service manual? Buell Maintenance for Dummies?   Guell Posted on Saturday, May 17, 2008 - 06:24 pm:        the service manual is cheap enough, i would just go ahead and get that. I dont know of anything inbetween.   Rotzaruck Posted on Saturday, May 17, 2008 - 07:29 pm:        I've got a parts manual between mine.   Ratbuell Posted on Sunday, May 18, 2008 - 09:19 am:        IIRC the owners manual should have a section on changing oil, checking primary tension, etc. There should also be a checklist in there for which items get changed/adjusted/checked at each mileage interval.
