Read it cover to cover. There will be a quiz later. Seriously, though...there's not a useless page in the book. The more you read, the more you learn...even if you don't have to "do" something, just "knowing" about it can help troubleshoot or workaround a problem until you get time to get to the root cause. |

Look at some of the pictures, the parts fitted in some weren't on the production bikes, things like footpegs etc all vary. |

I agree with Rat - read the thing cover to cover. Auto manufacturers buy competitor cars all the time and do a complete tear down to see what makes it tick. I treat the service manual as my poor mans way of doing the same thing with out the expense, time or desire of tearing down a perfectly fine cycle just for curiosity sake. |

Ok. I figured it out. Im going to pick 1 random page and use it to roll a fat joint and pray I never need that page for anything. It's my version of Russian roulette. I call it "American Supersport bike manual roulette" Lol Just kidding. I'd rather burn the Qu'aran. |
