haynes vs. clymer vs. factory kaw

[greenbarn]

Anybody have the electronic version of the OEM factory manual?  I noticed it on EBAY last night for about $10, and thought I'd get it.  Company says his are from original version - clear as the proverbial bell, no scanned images.  I'll post the link:  Wait, I'm going to go buy mine first before you all do...

The paper is nice in a lot of instances, but for $10 I guess I can print off a couple pages, or take the laptop out to the shop.  I guess I'll get another version in paper.  Clymer seems to be more available.

I use the factory manual; so far, so good, hasn't let me down. However, if the opportunity arises, I will pick up the others as well... can't get too much info.

Regards and such,

I use the Clymer and the Kaw manuals all the time. Combined they will tell you most everything you wanna know.

I don't have the factory manual but I have noticed that the other two are useful to pick up the slack from each other. One may show one thing better and the other show another thing better.

Very few manuals beat a FSM, but I would think that between the 3 any question could be answered. Personally, I plan on getting all 3.

Does anyone know if these manuals have basically the same info, or if one is superior??  I plan to do all my work myself, but need the specs and such, diagrams, procedures, and what-not.  For an 800 BTW.
