Service Manual for a 05 Bulldog

[Ben]

Hello all. Does anyone have a 05 manual in English (PDF) that they could send to me. I have the 02 version but there are quite a few differences. I have checked this and other forums but no luck.

Due to working away from home and spending 5-6 weeks away at a time I found that the battery was very weak when new and would not turn the engine without 24 hrs on the optimate charger. My battery had to be changed after 2 1/2 years. (my VFR 750 only lasts 1 1/2 years). I have now started using a solar trickle charger which works very well. No charge controller required and it just fits straight onto the battery. Direct sunlight is not required, just daylight. I will post full details (with photos)in the future. The solar charger is being discounted at Maplins, with a price of only £9.99 a bargin!

Try this link to Yamaha website.

It lets you download manuals for most models.
Unfortunately 05 manual is only in Spanish, but 04 is in English it that's any use.

Thanx Les but I need the service manual, not the owners manual which I already have, This winter I'm looking to check the valves and carry out a through inspection.

Hi Ben

i thought it was just the bolt ons that had changed the engin is the same i know the carbs are differant and there is talk of a cat in the exhaust but i wouldnt have thought the valve clearance would have changed mybe some one else can confirm this

Hi Ben

I have owners manuals for both the Mk 1 and Mk 2, but I also bought a CD Service manual on ebay for £1.99 plus postage, which covers both models, in English. It's not like a Haynes manual in that it assumes that you are a trained mechanic, but provides lots of exploded diagrams, the order of dismantling parts, torque settings, part numbers, tolerances, etc. but is very useful.
I can't upload it onto the computer, it will only let you run it from the disk, but it's worth getting if you know what you are doing around a bike.

The engine, gearbox, frame, drive shaft, bodywork, i.e. the basics, are the same on both bikes, and according to the manuals, so are the carbs, (I have both manuals in front of me and they both quote Mikuni BSR 37's) but after that there are far more differences than I at first realised, e.g. progressive fork springs as standard on the Mk 2, catalytic converters, new wiring loom, etc,etc. Doing the valves, however, is a doddle, none of the bucket and shim stuff, but even they don't seem to go out of adjustment.

Hi all,

does it have to be in English?? I think there is one in German (sorry, I´m talking about a service-manual for the 05-and onward BT1100)
So, if German is ok, send me a "pn"
