workshop repair manuals

[Tim Gaskell]

Can anyone help? I do not seem to be able to find workshop/repair manuals or cd's for my 07 R1200GS. Adventure

The Haynes GS manual was up-dated in 2006 to cover the 1200. Manual publishers don't up-date each year it is financially not posible. Your 07 model have only minor changes to the 06, so would be 99.9% covered by that manual. There are more changes on the 08, but these changes hardly effect the maitenance or the settings, so would also be mostly coverd accept for the cosmetic changes.

I'd get the Haynes R1200GS 04-06, I've had mine a year and haven't opened it yet... I'll only start servicing myself when the waranty runs out.

Hi the Haynes manual is ok but a better reference point for routine servicing including ABS brake Bleeding is Jim Von Baden DVD which is accessed from the adventure rider site.He has produced a home how to guide for all things servicing of the 1200,The haynes manual is ok for non routine stuff.
