Owner's Manual

#1 Post by silverstrom » Sun Nov 06, 2016 7:53 pm

Looking for an RG500 Owner's Manual.

Anyone have a spare hard copy?

Anyone have a link to a digital copy?

Part # of the Owner's Manual?

Has anyone ever seen an RG500 Owner's Manual? I can't even find an image of one. No info at all.

MJ? A family connection Steve.

There is another MJ connection to the RG500 https://www.flickr.com/photos/teamheron ... 338422048/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I'll keep looking. But I'm not desperate, or stupid.

Problem solved. This arrived in the mail today. A little fading on the cover, but perfect condition inside.

Me too. Saw it here http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SUZUKI-RG500- ... SwiYlZ5bOf" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

The big version is only 21 cm x 15 cm. The one that looks smaller can't be much less than that. I think it looks a lot smaller because it's printed in landscape view rather than portrait view. For perspective, the Yamaha manuals are 18 cm x 13 cm.
