Anyone know if there's anywhere I can download something like a Haynes manual? I've seen Pro-Manuals but they come on disc. I've got the workshop manual but I reckon a Haynes type would be better for some things.
You can buy Haynes manuals here but they have to be ordered in, take forever and cost a mint.

Official Honda NC30 service manual there.

I've got the service one Neo and that's where I got it. Good but could do with a tad of detail. It assumes you know quite a bit already, though having now got the bike in about 20 box's and then back to the point where there's only 5 still with bits in, I've learned a lot already.
I have seen plenty on Trademe Harvd but I hate paying the rip-off prices they charge for books here. Get a $50 book, peel the sticker off and the UK price is 8 quid ($17). It's just a licence to print money (pun intended, crap though it is).
I think I'll get one off ebay UK. Everything else is coming from there or Rick Oliver so...
When I do get a Haynes I've a good mind to scan every page at work and put it up as a torrent, I'm so pissed off with the theft prices they charge. Apparently you can't get done for copyright either as they don't own the bikes (at least that's how I'm told it works here in NZ).
All things aside though, it's not a hard bike to work on, manual or not. Certainly the best engineered one.
A big thanks to all those who have given advice to get me this far.
Note to self: make a donation!

The haynes books are usually around £20.00 in th UK, never used one though, only have a scan of the NC24 specs out of one (which are wrong anyway)

The Honda Service manual much everything, if you have the microfiches too you can see how everything fits together, don't see what else you'd need to know?

Aye. £20.00 is $42 but here they're $70 to $80 which I consider to be theft myself.
Never used one myself either Neo but I see them refered to a lot on here so would like a gander.
As you say, the service manual is pretty good and I do have the microfiches. The only problems I've had so far is a lack of some tools, which I've made in the workshop.

You can get the haynes from Oz ebay, worth every penny!

None on at the moment cammo but I'll keep and eye out. Cheers,

Just contact the seller regarding postage.

Good on yer commo. I'd searched VFR400 Haynes.
That'll do me nicely.
Many thanks,
