HONDA issued 3 books in the years I listed earlier.
They are the MOTORCYCLE IDENTIFICATION GUIDE.
All are large thick books. ...........lm

Thank you Mr. Mouse. I have found the white one on line for $50.

It is a reprint.

Does that sound reasonable? And is it a good one to have?

Thank you again

George

Received a copy of the White book today from Repairmanual.com. It is totally black and white print but very good quality and easy to read. $38.95.

Also picked up a replica of a 1972 Honda CB 750 K2 owners manual. It is printed on 8x11 paper and bound nicely. It is larger than the original but better for these 60 year old eyes.

Just another avenue. They seem like pretty nice folks and have a lot of manuals and the like for sale.
