If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.
If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.
You didn't say what bike it's for. I don't think Haynes published a manual for every single model.
Why not put your bike(s) in your signature? It makes it easier for everyone.

As already noted, it will be necessary to know what bike you are discussing.
I have a factory manual, a Haynes manual and a Clymer manual for my 850s. The factory has the fewest mistakes, but the Haynes and Clymer might have a better photo of a particular part or procedure.
The factory manual was produced for their mechanics, who would be sent to school on the bike. By doing that, the manual could assume that certain procedures would be followed automatically, and did not need to be spelled out in the manual.
The other two manuals were written for the DIY shade-tree mechanic, so they try to do a little more detail on some procedures, but they often fail by including wrong details, so ... good luck. :encouragement:

Center column of service manuals.......and note on the sides ( left and right margins ) are many tutorials for most of the common areas that come up when rebuilding or servicing these old GS bikes.

Thanks Chuck, but I have this manual already.
Was hoping to find the Haynes or Clymer for the 1979 Suzuki GS750 in PDF format.

Yeah I have a leak coming from the crankcase and just want a procedure for correctly taking it apart and checking leaks.
So far the game plan is to check all seals....electrical O-rings, sprocket drive, gear shift seal, crank case seal.
It appears its coming from the clutch pin but not really sure..
