Service Manual

Post by chippy »

Where is the best place to get one? Is the OEM manual what I want, or a Clymer , etc.? I have run way to long without one. Thankfully I haven't needed it yet.

Ok. We give up. :busted: Which KDX foo you have?

For 1988 and up, your local dealer has the OEM manual. You can download the owner's manual from Kawasaki

@
200 H model.

I downloaded the owners manual several years ago. So is the Kawasaki OEM the preferred service manual, or are one of the aftermarket manuals better? I ordered my Honda and Yamaha manuals straight from Helm Inc. Much less expensive that way. I'm not sure who publishes Kawasaki's manuals, so is the dealer the only option? Are the "E" series and older not available? I'm just looking for the most useable information for my buck. I like this older/simpler bike and plan on keeping it for awhile. It's just a great bike to have FUN on! :grin:

Go to the home page for this site and look at the top left corner. There is a link you can click on for manuals.

The MSRP is $60 for the 1995+ manual. Some online stores stores sell them for about 10% less.

There is no "store bought" manual, like a Haynes, Clymer or Chilton. The online manual linked here is a great option. It is printable.
