No need to yell, we're right here. Speaking of right here, you can get a service manual with a lifetime subscription to this forum. Don't know what it costs these days but I think it's cheaper than what you just posted.

So I got a manual from ebay. Not the one from Brooklyn. And I really don't have anything against anyone from there, it's just his was listed as loose leaf if I remember right. Talking with Hondasxs, I think the problem is I didn't warm up the motor to do the reset. Once I get the manual, I'll pull the codes if any and then do a reset and go from there.

You are a great group and would love to meet you guys out on the trail some time.

Welcome from Northern Idaho. I was born and raised in Orland, so I know your neck of the woods well. Do you do much riding around the Mineral/Mill Creek area of Mount Lassen? My parents had a cabin at MIll Creek when I was a kid.

Didn't know there was any riding south of Lassen. I did ride on the North side at Twin Bridges, but it burned in the fire. Was up there last week riding motorcycles. Sierra pacific has closed all their land up there, so it's hard to get from one area to another right now.

I get it, you're old school and I can appreciate that. What the forum offers is a downloaded digital copy that can be printed multiple times and not damaged or misplaced. And a lifetime membership so you can always talk to people from all over the country about things that aren't in that book. FWIW

I may personally own multiple copies of the 1000 service manual. I was ordering them every year just to keep up with wiring diagrams and see what changes. I also own a few Talon and 500 manuals.
