Curious as to what y'all pay down in the states for this Manual.

  • It's only really cold if you fall down in it.

Chaplin Kawasaki is about an hour from me and is a genuine 'brick and mortar' Kawasaki dealer. They list a 2010 repair manual for $85. I assume this is the manual for the current C-14 maybe not- not sure if KTRAC is in there or not?

Seems mine was about $85 in early 2010 for my '09 ABS.

Should the added tech to the bike drive the price of the manual? 

How much does the manual cost for a K1600GTL?    :censored:    ;D

Wow- they are really marking it up.  I think I paid about $75 from my dealer (which is surprising, since they seem to mark everything up crazy high).

WOW!  That's a lot of money.  I picked up a used one on EBAY for US$35 or so.  It's a little dirty but no matter since I dirtied it up a bit more when I used it.

:yikes: :censored: :doh: well lesson learned. I'll ask the questions here before I spend. I can understand a bit of make up, but not 500%. Then I still had to wait the 3 weeks to go pick it up from the STEALERSHIP. Even with shipping, Revenue Canada(Dutie) and GST it would have been under $100.00. Have to read it cover to cover 5 or 6 times to get my money out of it.

They are selling illegal copies (and I have reported them to Kawasaki).  I can tell by the binding and type of site.
