Hey Inda, What about the manuals posted on ebscohost databases. These are free and accesible to anyone through public libraries etc.
They are free to use and print the terms just say you can't sell or profit.

I have never seen a non-pirated electronic version of Kawasaki's KDX manual. If they have a copyright on them... it means they cannot be reproduced without consent.
Cyclepedia did their own so that is their intellectual property.

That looks all well and fine but it is not a general public access site that you can just look over everything. You have to access it from Public Library or some other subscriber. Someone is getting paid somewhere....

Yeah it happens to be one of the few things worth a **** that they have spent our tax dollars on. The libraries, schools, colleges, etc. pay a fee to have access to these databases for their patrons, students, or whoever. Ebsco in turn pays for licensing rights to the owners of the material. This is just a very small portion of what is available on these databases. Most of it is educational and literary in nature.
