Awesome Schematics

[skyhawk04kilo]

Hey guys, this may have been posted before but I couldn't find it. Anyway, BikeBandit has all the microfiche schematics for the XS. I tried '78 but they didn't have that year, but I knew the part I wanted was the same on an '83 and they had the fiche for 1983. I'm not sure what other years have / don't have the corresponding fiche. Anyway, it's a nice reference.

Bikebandit is nice becaus they actually have Harley schematics. The bad part is, they dint give an OEM part number. What's even better - IMHO - is :

yamaha's site that lists by section
http://yamaha-motor.com/sport/myyam...ZmF1bHQuYXNweA==/Parts Catalog/starthere.aspx

or

This site that gives the genuine parts manual in PDF form that you can download, print out, and take to the garage with you

Most Excellent - Thanks

Does Honda have something similar? I'm doing a Shadow buld and can always use good resources. This bike is a whole lot more compicated than our lovely XS's

Yamaha and Kawasaki both have their parts diagrams on their website. Unfortunately, Honda and Suzuki have not followed suit. Thankfully there are dealers that list the microfiche on their home page. Some use OEM part numbers, but others don't. My go to for OEM numbers is
http://www.mrcycles.com/

they list all 4 big Japanese so it's like one stop shopping. They also give prices so you kind of have an idea what a part will cost you.
