Very good illustrations and directions I've used it to perform all my routine maintenance and I am just now looking at engine internals. I have the Clymers manual as well, but I like this one better. It seems more concise and it doesn't have the annoying errors I have found in the Clymer book
Don't bother Don't bother to buy a BMW manual. Here's all you need to know: 1. Fill the fluids regularly 2. Keep the tires inflated 3. The clunk on shifting is normal; BMWs use a dry clutch 4. The buzzing at 4800 rpm is normal. My friend reminds me that you can buy one part to fix this: it's called a 2001 K1200RS!
Falls Short Like every other BMW manual I've seen, this one falls short. There isn't a single one out there that tells you how to take apart the control grips! I wish the manual writers would spend less time talking about repairs that no sane person would attempt (right, I'm gonna disassemble the drive shaft) and more time talking about simple repairs. This manual does describe the disassembly and reassembly of the front fairing (which is a real Chinese puzzle!). On the whole, though, I was not impressed. It's also written for the Brits, which means that most of the terminology is British. Remember what George Bernard Shaw said!
