Buyer beware...

Post by Busy Little Shop »

Ebay 281225600388 is for HONDA RC30/VFR750R OEM FACTORY OWNER'S
MAINTENANCE MANUAL starting bid is $185 USD... thats all well and good
but unlike the RC45 owners manual the RC30 / VFR750R owners manual is
not out of print... you can order an official Honda authorized copy
part# 31MR7700 at helminc.com for $21.95... the only difference is one
is printed in Japan and the other is printed in the USA... if where
its printed matters to you then OK but if its not then helminc is a
real deal alternative because they only sell manuals written by the
manufacturer (Original OEM), designed specifically for your Honda...

Larry,

The Helminc Honda part number is 31MR7700, but my UK manual is 32MR7810, is the Helminc the US version?
The are some differences between the models [cams, emmision parts] although most of the service information is the same.

Good value compared to the silly prices now asked.
The last one I bought years ago was £10, but I have just passed it on to a friend.

Interesting... can you order a 32MR7810 in the UK???

Yes... 31MR7700 does say printed in the USA but the difference is the
addition of the our Federally mandated emission parts and not the omission
of any important service information...

If your talking about Helminc then ask for the USPS flat rate priority shipping box to the UK which is $23.95...
