Workshop manual?

Does anyone do a workshop manual for the S?... specifically a late twin-spark?

I have looked on amazon for Clymer and Haynes and drawn a blank...

I mean I'm a competent mechanic, but I like to have one to hand for quick and easy location of components, oil volumes, torque settings etc etc.

ta! :)

Haynes do a manual for the S from 1999-2004 which is covered within BMW R850, 1100 & 1150 4-valve Twins, manual number 3466, priced £19:99.
Take a look at their website (www.Haynes.co.uk) under motorcycle manuals.

Ah Haynes, can also be used as toilet paper.

Remember re-assembly is the reverse of dis-assembly

Get yourself one of the BMW workshop manuals on cd off flea bay for few quid - that'll have everything you need

I think that you will find that one "dismantles" the engine, then "remantles" it. (From a Japanese instruction manual - translated into English-ish)
