COPIES OF ED SCOTT'S Honda, GL1200, 1984-1986: Manual
[Image: 413Jxfo32-L._SL500_.jpg]

Amazon.com for under $15 in good used condition.

IN MY OPINION, OUTSIDE OF THE VERY EXPENSIVE HONDA official GL1200 service manuals, this is the most complete and useful of the commercially published manuals. I have them all ... for maintaining my Honda GoldWing GL1200 Interstate motorcycle. Even though the "other two" manuals by Clymer or Haynes

... each of which is "O.K." ... Ed Scott's "Honda, GL1200, 1984-1986: Service, repair, maintenance" is the BEST, hands down.

Not only are the step by step repair and maintenance instructions certain to (with excellent photos) lead to successful outcomes but the all important electrical wiring is ***COLOR*** CODED. The color coding in the wiring diagrams matches the OEM color scheme making service and/or modification very much easier than trying to decipher the black and white wiring diagram in the Clymer or Haynes manuals ... or even Honda's official GL1200 shop manual.

i'd have to add that a Electrical Troubleshooting Manual for the 85-87's is also one of the best things to have in anybody's library along with a Honda Service Manual

Sounds like a good deal. Might have to get them both.
