Need help buying service manual
Found a cheap supplement manual 2005 so it would have my 2001 in there. Do I still need to get the original service manual AND the supplement? Or does the supplement have everything I need? I understand how supplements work but do I need both? I imagine getting just the supplement for $20 is too good to be true. Thanks
Can I just go cheap and get one on a CD and print it? I know the Kawasaki would be the best but I've seen people here say they've gotten the dowloadable pdf versions. |

You need the base manual and the supplement to have everything. I got a CD with both from an eBay seller in Canada, and it was much less than $20.

Well I got it. Nice little manual however it's for the EX250R-J and having a 2001 I have an EX250R-F so I messaged him and asked him if he has the right one his listing didn't specify but I told him the year of my bike over and over. I need it to adjust the valves and set the timing so don't know if I can use this one or is it nothing more than cyber toilet paper to me?
Maybe you can answer that @Triple Jim |

If you have a manual for an EX250-J, you have a manual for newgens. You need the base manual and supplement for the EX250-F (pregen). Newgen valve adjustment is completely different from pregen valve adjustment.
If the guy refuses to help, just let eBay know the product you received is substantially different from the description, and refer to the message(s) you sent that specified the year of your motorcycle. |

I just found the service manual online it was made in 2007 so I don't need a supplement. So this guy is just copying this and charging people lol. Oh well if he sends this file to me I'll call it a day but damn lol

I can't tell you what that manual is for sure, but there is a base manual and a supplement for later pregen models. Don't be sure that because it was made in 2007 that is covers the base material.
My supplement manual does not cover removing the starter motor, for example, it just refers to the base manual in that section. |

Hey guys/ladies so I'm ready to buy the service manual to my 2001 Ninja 250 and went to Kawasaki and it appears as though they cannot be bought off their site right now. I will call them Monday to see if maybe I can do it over the phone. Is there another place I can find the manual? I prefer the Kawasaki manual over another brand as I've heard mixed reviews when it comes to the Clymer manuals etc. Appreciate all the help. Also not seeing anything on Ebay either.
AJ Edit: Is this even legit? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Clymer-M241-...VYIWnL&vxp=mtr http://www.ebay.com/itm/KAWASAKI-SHO...5T8ms8&vxp=mtr |

Just so we are clear it's a 2001 Ninja service manual? And I've emailed you. Edit: Thanks everyone for your help Ram Jet and I have an agreement for his extra service manual. Appreciate it! Looking forward to doing the rest of the maintenance and work on my own! Last futzed with by A.J.; June 25th, 2017 at 12:30 PM. |

Bill, already told you through email that I will take your words of wisdom very seriously! Matter of fact I've been searching for a front fender today! Lol Now when you say front fender I'm assuming upper front fairing? You know, the one the windshield goes on? I also think it looks better on the bike. Ive got plenty of tools so I'm ready for the manual. First project is eliminating the fender without one of those fancy $100 eliminator kits. And happy birthday! |
