shop manuals

Hey everybody!!! i am new to the kz world and picked up a 1980 KZ 650 for $100 with title. starting a chopper build and wanted to know if there was any advice here for me, also any suggestions on obtaininga repair manual online? i just started the break down process.i am all ears and everything helps let me know.

so from what i am told a kz 650 engine is bullett proof, and its almost unbreakable any thoughts?

Welcome... and nice score on the 650!

650's????? 900's 1000's are bullit proof!
As long as your not launching them at 9 grand with a 7" slick! On the 1/4 mile strip!
Buy a factory manual! Plain and Simple!
Don't waste $ on Haynes or Clymer!
Sell all your stock parts on ebay piece by piece!
Recoup some money for other stuff!
That's what I do.

i launch my little bike at 11,000 and its still bulletproof 5 years on the same engine and it runs mid 10's all day. can't kill it. and for a regular guy that doesn't do this for a living the o.e manual is the best way to go.

My two sources for manuals:

1. www.repairmanual.com
2.www/manualsnmore.com

#2 should have been www.manualsnmore.com (big fingers, small keyboard).
