Wanted: factory service manual '85 gl1200

[kerryb]

I would like to buy a good used factory service manual for/ including '85 gl1200 goldwing. I know I can download a digital version but that is just too frustrating to use in my workspace. Note: not interessted in a clymer manual unless the price is really cheap (thats what they're worth to me).
Thanks. kerryb

I have a pretty good pdf version of the manual that I sent to Dan that is in the gallery here. All that is needed is printing it off if you want a copy of that.

Curious.. Is there a Honda Shop manual specific to the 1985? I'm finding mostly 1984-1987 and a 1985 Supplement.

Yes, that's very curious. This is my first foray into the world of 1200's, are they that much different than the 1100's besides hydraulic lifters and certain fuel injection models? I'm going to be working on an 85 interstate. It is supposed to arrive today or tuesday.

Not much: Electric fuel pump, linked brakes, secondary air system on the carbs, and anti-dive system on the front forks. The rest is pretty much the same.

Oh good, I was hoping there wouldn't be too many surprises.

I'm going to start a new thread to chronicle my questions and progress on this one.
