Clymer is Simply The Best
"I have a shop manual for my 2003 Yamaha Roadstar and use it whenever I need to service the bike, even if it is something I haven’t done before. I knew the manual for my Rancher would be just as outstanding as the Roadster manual. Clymer is simply the best, thank you for great products."

Just What I Needed
"The Clymer Manual is just what I needed. The Wiring Diagrams are extremely helpful. The methods outlined for troubleshooting electrical problems were perfect. The pictures of component locations were helpful, but would have liked to have seen more component diagrams."

These Manuals Are Invaluable
"I have been using Haynes and Clymer manuals for close to 45 years. I have built numerous British and American motorcycles as well as many muscle cars and repairs and rebuilds of my daily drivers. These manuals are invaluable to me and I actually have 2 full shelves just for all my manuals."
