Service manuals for a 1974 Honda CB 200?
I'm a 20 year old student with relatively no mechanical background and no education in engineering. I'm looking for a service manual that will work for me. I've heard god things about the Clymer manuals because they explain things in detail for people like me who have no background in working on motorcycles.
Are there any other manuals for a 1974 Honda CB 200 that I should consider buying before I get this one and is this one going to be a good buy for me?
I use a Clymer manual for my motorcycle. I like it.
I consider myself mechanically inclined although I have had no formal training in motorcycle mechanics. Just an old gear-head that has been doing this for longer than I would like to admit.
I do all of my own maintenance on my bike. The Clymer manual has decent easy to follow step by step instructions.
The nice thing is that I can read the instructions before I start. I can then decide if the maintenance procedure is something that I can do or over my head. I can also know ahead of time if any special tools are required. So far I haven't found anything that I couldn't do myself.
Seeing you admit to not being mechanically inclined, you may have different results. But I would still get the service manual. This way, if you ever need to take it to a mechanic for something you can not do yourself, you will at least understand what work was done.
