    anyone have Factory Service Manual for 82 GS450?

    I'm trying to help a friend locate a factory service manual for a 1982 GS 450 T, I believe it is the TXZ. with all the 550 750 and 1000 repair manuals I have found downloadable online and bass cliff's site, I thought for sure I would find a 450 manual for my buddies new bike. Not the case it is much harder to find. I found for $69.99 A GS 450 manual up to 1988, that is a lot of money!
    I can't locate one through a net search, does anyone have a download of one in PDF or a link for 1?

          Must've sold, darnit. I see some for upwards of $60-80+! There are several that dont have a year listed on fleabay. The New Zealand guy has one on there, might be the way to go. Looks different but I think it's his repro of the originals with all supplements added if I remember correctly.

                  Well it looks like there is an '86 version on repairmanual.com for $39.99 & an '88 version on there for more. The guy in New Zealand has one up with his own cover art & I believe it is a compilation of all years and supplements, about $53-57 shipped but takes a few weeks to ship. there was a thread on here several years ago where a half a dozen people were singing his praises quite a bit.

                  Dunno if pete ever actually posted this anywhere (I didn't see it if he did) but he mentioned in a thread the ebay seller where he got his really nifty manual from was eclassic bike or something like that and I tracked down the seller. Assuming this actually works this link should search everything from that seller for

                      That's the guy I got the factory repro manual for my '82 450E from, and yeah I'll sing his praises!

                      Good quality re-print on good quality paper, all bound up with a protective plastic cover.

                      Can't remember the price but I think it was less than $50 including postage and was well worth it.
