Clymer manual for the Honda CX & GL500/650's from 1978-1983
Clymer motorcycle repair manuals are written specifically for the do-it-yourselfer. Whether it’s routine maintenance or more extensive repairs involving engine and transmission disassembly, Clymer repair manuals provide all the information you need about your motorcycle. With step-by-step procedures, detailed photography and extensive use of exploded views, each manual is based on the complete disassembly of the machine. Unlike OEM manuals, which are purposely designed for the professional technician with an impressive array of specialized tools, equipment and knowledge, Clymer manuals are designed for the first-time user.
