    Default "Green Manual?"

    OK I need some help here, Please? 1)Is this more than an owners manual? 2) On what site/web page would I be looking for this? 3) Is it model specific, RT ES GS whatever? In looking & checking out maintenance videos on here I find they are very good, But, I can't carry my lap top around with me and find specific things I want to check,repair, replace or whatever. Could somebody give me the specific web page or site to order one of these? Please? Cost is not a problem, just finding one for sale seems to be the biggest issue. Thanks

    Default Let's see....

    The green manual is a full shop manual like the ones the mechanics might use in a dealership shop. It will tell you all you need to know. It is model specific and available in many places. I got mine on Ebay but you can go to amazon or to their site directly...

    Default Manuals

    They are more than the owners manual. It is a PDF searchable copy and they are specific to years and models. It is a copy of the whole BRP factory shop manual, plus the owners manual, trailer manual for the year purchased and the accessory book for that year (mine is a total of 1,197 pages). http://www.green-manuals.com/motorcycles/can-am.htm

    I use this to work on and perform maintenance on our 2015 RT-S. I print the selected areas I need and am not afraid to grease, fold or otherwise damage a very spendy factory manual.

    I got mine on EBAY...
    They are year and model specific, and are pretty easy to use.
    It's a full-on shop manual.

    EDIT: Here;s a link to just one of them; it should give you an idea of what to look for:

    Tomline, the manuals mentioned here are downloaded. I guess you could print one out but at 1,000 + pages that may be expensive.

    This is the one I use and it has been very helpful. Either this or the Green manual will give you what you need.

    I purchased one of the Green Manuals for my 2015 RT Limited. The disc they sent me was for the 2010-2011 RT.

    I have tried contacting them through eBay but no response for the past 10 days so now eBay is getting involved.

    Poor customer service on Green Manual's part.

    Default Got One

    I have shop manuals for all of my motorized equipment. I use them to determine if I have the tools, and mechanical abilility to perform the work. I read what is required and make the decision to perform the work or leave it to a trained professional. The manuals have saved me from showing up at the shop with an incomplete attempt at repair more than once . As Far as Green Manuals, I have one for my 2015 RT. It is very comprehensive. I refer to it often.
