Freebird Posted May 11, 2018 Share #2 Posted May 11, 2018 You can't upload a file that large. If you know how to FTP, I can create a way for you to FTP it to the site and then I can link it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have used FTP is the past, I can download a FTP client and give it a go. I have the manual in my Dropbox, also have the Infotainment center manual in PDF format, it's 29 MB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zelthian Posted May 11, 2018 Share #4 Posted May 11, 2018 I have the manual in my Dropbox Shouldn't you be able to make a public dropbox share/link? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freebird Posted May 11, 2018 Share #5 Posted May 11, 2018 If I can download it from your Dropbox, I can then upload them to the site. That would be great. If you want to send me a PM with the information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Yamaha Service Manual is not and was not available excep by ordering and they ship you the complete manual including all the prints. The Actual Service Manual is about 2” thick. That’s WAY more than any mb. You’d be talking Giga Bytes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s WAY more than any mb. You’d be talking Giga Bytes. It is the service manual, 746 pages, contains electrical diagrams, however the diagrams are difficult to read. The hard copy with the pullouts would be needed to follow the electrical circuits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freebird Posted May 14, 2018 Share #10 Posted May 14, 2018 Hi Freebird, I sent you a PM with the link info this morning, however I do not see it in the PM sent folder. Did you receive the PM? Thanks I did receive the PM and have downloaded the files. I will get them uploaded to the site today or tomorrow. I took a quick look and can see that though it says "Service Manual", it says below that, "Basic Information". I think it will be great information for people but just so everybody doesn't get their hopes up, it is NOT an actual service manual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freebird Posted May 14, 2018 Share #11 Posted May 14, 2018 hmmmm....I just took another look and I tell you...it's pretty darn complete. I may be wrong, I haven't looked in detail but it may actually be the service manual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a waste at all, I can put that paper manual right next to me while working. My computer is on a desk and who wants to try and use a tablet or phone while working on their bike? I prefer paper manuals as you can add notes when and where needed, can't do that with an online manual. Sure you can print the pages you need but now you have to keep printing every time you want a hard copy and if you want to save the print outs you have to make a notebook so you might as well just have the paper manual anyway. Online manual is nice but it dose not replace the paper manual for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing beats smudged up fingerprints and small tears in the pages to remind me of fond memories working on and modifying my bike. It’s the small things in life.
