+1

You could get it direct from HelmInc but if the dealer is getting you that bad on this, what else are they trying.

They've actually hooked me up on a few parts. I'm not defending them though, this is the dealer I've talked about before that hasn't gotten any of my business on our past five Hondas.

I'm looking for the Factory Service Manual though, not an aftermarket. It's on Amazon for around $70 including shipping.

Re: WTB:Service Manual for SP2 RC-51 (Factory Honda)

From the Honda dealer price book. The problem is, there is only about $6.00 markup on the service manuals and the dealers normally try to add their "usual" margin of 100% to anything OEM.

The Helm is the OEM manual. http://www.helminc.com/helm/product2.asp?class%5F2=AHC&mk=Honda+Motorcycle&yr= 2002&md=RVT&dt=Shop%2FService+Information&module=& from=result&Style=&Sku=61MCF05&itemtype=N&mscsid=K 47LAWA6XMFA8J40N4N46TD1AWUTA8Q6

They get 60.00 on their website.

Thanks for the info. I'll try to contact him. From what I've seen, the manual I need covers 2002-2005.

DUX, nothing to add here except, good onya for trying to buy the manual instead of downloading a pirated copy.

Yep looks real and they keep adding a year so 2002-2005 would work also.

Email me.
I kinda doubt it, since he was looking 16 months ago, and he's sold the RC since then...
