Trying to find work shop manual for 250cc bandit. :thanks:
-
good luck, i've never been able to, the 400 is practically the same in terms of chassis etc so a lot of its manual is usable.
the link below is a translation of a japanese website that covers almost all servicing info on the b250, the engrish is tricky at times but if you know your way around a bike, and use it in conjunction withteh 400 manual you'll figure it out.

for what it's worth, Suzuki Australia can find no evidence of there ever being a workshop manual.
By gum, that Engrish takes some translation. But whoever he is he's put some effort into it!

I'v seen one in an Importers over here in Ireland they use it for getting part numbers, they treat it like its the holy grail. The only place to get one is off Suzuki Japan in there Osaka branch you'll need to speak Japanese though, Best of luck sport.

Almost as good as the real Engrish that was in an OLD Honda owners manual - before they hired real English speakers to write their export manuals... "Beware the skid demon."

"Beware the skid demon."
Always good advice, though. :wink:

What the heck is a GSX250F? I have a manual for one of those that I D/Led a while back (a '91). Just looking at the pics it's a different body and frame but does it have the same motor and other mechanicals?

That's the Across, sorta like a 250 version of a Katana.

Cool. But does it use the same motor/carbs/electrics... as the B250 which would make the Across manual useful to the good folks of this board?
-
Good question... I thought someone here in the 250 section a while back had investigated that and found they aren't the same powerplant... but I wouldn't swear to it.

I can vouch for this manual in reguards to the bandit as I have just rebuilt my Bandit 250 after a nasty valve V piston incident :crybaby: , the only thing I found different was the carbs, on mine there were 4 single barrel carbs instead of the two twin barrel carbs on the accross. That seems to be the only difference. :motorsmile:

I know of at least one Australian dealer who has a full english version of the manual for 2000 model GSF250V's.
I ring their workshop and usually offer them $20 to copy and fax to me the section I need. They have no issue with doing this as the time as cost is covered. I just give em my credit card number and they have it pumping out the fax within 20 mins :grin:
I too was told/though there was no manual in english for the VVT bikes in Aus but there surely is :grin:
