Buy the Clymer manual instead: it is far more comprehensive and much better illustrated. The modest extra cost is well worth paying!

Haynes manuals are generally well thought out and illustrated based on a complete tear-down and expert rebuild. Haynes has been doing this for many diverse vehicles from cars motos and tractors for many years and have developed an excellent formula for presenting this information so it is useful to all owners from never get your hands dirty to expert mechanics. For me it is presented in a more intelligible format than other manuals eg. Chilton and even factory shop manuals, for this amateur mechanic.

When I received the Haynes BMW service and repair manual I was surprised and pleased to find it much improved over the older versions. More diagrams, photos, and better explanations. Excellent manual.

I purchased this book for my husband. He believes this is a great book for anyone that owns a BMW Twin Motorcycle to add to your collection for any work you might want to do on your own bike.

Good basic guidance to repair and maintenance of a wide variety of R bikes. Even includes obscure R65-specific material.

This is about the 25th Haynes Manual I've collected over the past 20+ years. The details and accuracy are excellent. It's a high quality hard-bound book. In my experience, the Haynes Manuals are about the best out there, short of the factory service manuals. I have them for nearly every car I've owned in the last 20-30 years as well as most of my friends vehicles. Excellent value.

The purpose of the purchase of the Haynes manual was to get maintenance information on a particular model, the R65, such as fluid capacities, the location of the oil filter, wiring chart, etc. It is quite informative on these matters, with useful photos. Rob Real

This is the third manual I have for my BMW R65LS motorcycle.

I have used Haynes manuals extensively in the past.

It is a typical Haynes manual - concise, compact and easy to follow. Some might find the format a bit "tight" compared to a Clymer or factory manual. However all the required information is there. Electrical diagrams are in colour. Photographs and diagrams are clear - if a bit small. Instructions are easy to follow.

Some may find the Haynes physically easier to use with its hard cover and more compact format than a Clymer.

I prefer the Clymer for its layout and its diagrams and photographs. There are simply more of them.

It is a great manual for the price. If you can afford it - get both manuals.

It is my first experience of ordering goods from Amoson and it will not be my last. Excelent service and communication. Received goods in perfect condition before the estimated time of arival. I am a very satisfied and imprest customer.
