Was using my 2000 Road King Manual, jumping back and forth for fork removal to headlight, fender, and wheel, brakes.
Had a tape measure on the pages to keep it from closing. Kept loosing my spot in the book.

Read somewhere you could have it spiral bound.


Took it to Fed - Ex offfice ( kinko's). They split the book in two. Spiral bound each half.
Put a nice clear cover over the front of the book and a black plastic one on back. Nice, books lays flat now.

Since they did not have a spiral bind big enough to make one book they just charged me for one.

Total cost $6.50

Cheap money well spent

Same problem, too thick so they put it in a 3 ring binder.

 

Split my manual also,, definetly the way to go....

 

Read this thread, so I went to Staples and asked them if they could do this. Staples guy said that he could do it for under $10.00 and that it would be ready in under an hour. HOOHA!!! Next time I get down that way, my brand new manual is going in to get a stage 3 upgrade!

 

OfficeMax charged me $3.99 and did a full spiral binding on the whole manual.

I also added 2 white heavy paper sheets under the front cover to write down the most common torque numbers and other things I usually have to look up.

 

cheapest mod yet.

 

"Paying member since 2009... $0.02 at a time."

NoCoLoco.............. I love it.

 

Kinkos can handle the job also. I would recommend the wire spiral as opposed to the spline binding - it can and will tear the pages. Cost me $5, what a deal.

 

Same is done with all my manuals. Never knew or thought about this intil I had read it here in this forum. A must do for all

 

My manuals are on my PC. Print out what I need if needed.
