Rider's Manual, etc.

I just bought a 2004 R1150RT, but there was no Rider's Manual or Service and Technical Booklet with it. Where can I get those, besides printing off PDF copies? Also, any suggestions as to which manual you might recommend...Haynes or Clymer? Thanks.

Morning Michael

E-Bay is usually a good place to find the riders manual for older BMW's.

As far as what manual is better: Good question as they both heve there positives & negatives & they both contain errors.

Personally I like the BMW dealer service manual for most accurate information then use either Haynes or Clymer for better do-it-yourself type shortcuts & procedures.

I found the BMW manual to be great for pictures and diagrams, but short on actual order and instructions. I bought a Clymer and have been happy with it - found it lightly used on eBay.
