Title: workshop manual or service manual for drifter 800
Post by: JLA on August 02, 2013, 06:41:26 AM
Hi to all of You,

Is there any DRIFTER 800 workshop manual or service manual available for free download in the formum?
Does anyone know some other place to get it?

I have the vulcan VN 800-B (1995 to 2004) service manual in .pdf format if anyone is interested.

Thanks in advance.

I would recommend you the Heynes Kawasaki Drifter 800 book. But it on amazon o per internet. It's worth every cent it costs. I own it and I recommend it to you.

Nope... I know of no place to download it free. The Kaw service manuals are available for sale.

Hi Gerhardberger

Thanks for your recomendation.
I looked for it in HAYNES page and I only found a manual for vulcan 800; not for drifter model. can you help me with any specific reference or code in yours?  My 'new' drifter is the 2002 model (E1); do you think it is applicable, at least the most, for this model?

(Please, if possible, It would be helpful an image of the cover)

Nice to meet you; I'm 'new' in the forum.

I have the Greens Manuals for my 2002 Drifter 800 and I like the Green Manuals very much, worth every dime I spent, very well worth having if ur a Drifter 800 bike owner

Info for manuals :
https://www.vulcandrifterriders.com/forum/index.php?action=links;cat=48

You can download a copy of the owner manual and buy service manuals from Kawasaki. Some years aren't available but they didn't change much after 2000.
