I got mine at "Manual Wizard" for $25 + shipping (total $30.65)

Compared to Italian service manuals (I have TWO Aprilias and TWO Moto Guzzis, and Service Manuals for all of them), a Honda manual is a joy to read.

Really good use of $30. Highly recommended.

Re: electronic version

Initially I thought it would be better if you could get this in PDF, but the paper manual is very high quality and saves running back and forth to the computer, or printing-out the pages that you need.

sell.com raised the manual to $48.50. If someone sees a better deal, please post.

I ordered a copy at Manual Wizard as well. It was quickly delivered, but it was not an actual service manual. If you look really close in the picture, you can see that it is a xeroxed copy bound with a plastic strip like you can get at Kinko's. I guess I don't mind as it is decent quality, but it would have been nice to know I was ordering a knockoff.

A member scanned one it is in the files section.

join Honda Owner Link and sign up for HRCA and be eligible for free service manual download

The free manual is a "Universal Service Manual" and is NOT specific to the VFR1200F.

I went down that road and finally found a new manual on eBay. $50.11 with shipping.

#12

Anybody seen a new version of service manual? 2013 model?

#15

Thanks mate. One option to go with. Still need to ask for shipping cost which would definitely not be low.

I will try to find one in UK first, if unable will order this one.

#16

Is this the correct one?

Also found a link to this but cannot access it on work PC.

#17

No, its a 2010 version. Need 2012 version. Can`t access the pdf to.

New one comes with a new cover as well and you have two versions - volume one only and volume one and two.

I'm not sure how they differ.

Notice how the sellers remove the OEM number - probably cost a lot less by Honda but need to know a OEM number first.

I bought a 2013 version and they shipped me a 2010 plus a few sticker sheets to reflect the few changes, including a "2013" sticker to stick on the cover. The changes were nominal.

The difference is significant with electrical diagram as in 2012 traction control kicked in. Could you please verify the changes in electrics?
