Maintenance and repair book

Hi all,
I have just joined the group after picking up a 1983 GN250 that needs a
bit of TLC. I have spent a lot of time searching the archive and
googling around and It seems really hard to find a workshop manual for
the GN. (A search of this group for "GN250" gets heaps of results, with
what seems like half of them asking for a manual, but no answers as far
as I can see.)

Someone mentioned a generic type manual. Can anyone recommend a good
all round "Maintenance and Repair" book that could help me out?
General stuff, not model specific. Like, I can feel wear on the front
brake's disc, but I don't know how much wear is acceptable, that sort
of thing.

Of course if somebody has a Suzuki GN250 manual they can point me to I
would be more than happy

It's been a while since I've messed about with bikes, and I am hoping
to lift my game. I have always felt guilty for leaving a Vellocette
Valliant in bits in my Dad's shed more than a few years ago.

Best regards
Bill.

hi bill,

hammers shouldn't need manuals. I don't know what's wrong with your
generation, seems like they need everything laid out for them or "its
too hard"

I'll tell you mate, there's nothing wrong with my generation that a
good grease and oil change wouldn't fix up.

As for the rest of you guys, thank's for the gratuitous humour. You'r
all heroes.

Have you got one suitable for less fit people.
