Customer Reviews

They almost got it perfect...

I bought this manual mainly for torque specs and wiring/hose diagrams.... and it was pretty good! ...But I don't see any hose routing diagram for the 440/550... (which of course is what I NEEDED) ... there is one for the 300, there is one for the 650s (sx, x2) but not the 440/550's!!! beyond that MAJOR overisght it's a good manual, if I'd have known of this shortcoming, I would have just ordered the Kawasaki manual (Which I would have preferred to begin with, but the wait for shipping was the deciding factor)

Useful Tool

Excellent tool for the DIY'er, packed with photos and technical diagrams. 1 1/4 inches thick in black and white. I have used it extensively on rebuilding my JS550 and it has been a godsend for many things. Includes torque settings, carb adjustment settings, electrical wiring diagrams, explanations of how bilge system works, in depth fault finding procedures etc.etc. Only fault is it is hard to navigate and find things at first, but after studying it to the lengths I have, it is easy to find out what you want quickly after you understand the layout. A tip is to go through it with a highlighter and highlight everything relevant to your particular ski, THEN read it! Once you know what parts to disregard, it is much easier to understand! (Clymer is next best thing to a Haynes manual). Just waiting for one to come out for my 750SXi.
