I took the liberty of doing for this one what I did for the VLX manual in that forum (http://www.shadowriders.net/forums/showthread.php?t=22540).

The bookmarks were already in place in this particular instance, so all I had to do was run it through my OCR software. And, now it is fully text-searchable. Who wants to press [PAGE DOWN] a couple hundred times to find how the clutch assembly goes back together when their bike is on the lift and there are parts flying all over the place..? :madani:

I'm sure EVERYBODY is excited to know that the word "axle" appears 39 times in the VTX manual. It's worth noting that even the text in the illustrations now shows up in the document search...
:grin:

Here is a link to a direct download of the compressed file:

I'm hosting the file myself, just as the other manual. And, I haven't run into any bandwidth allocation issues yet. If the link doesn't work, or if anybody needs ANY help at all with extracting the PDF from the compressed ZIP, making the search function work properly in their PDF reader, or anything at all; just let me know.

-ScootGeek, out.

[As an aside, I'm trying to collect as many of these shop manuals as I can get my hands on so that we might have a "repository" of sorts. It only takes one of my machines a very little while to extract all the text. And, that made my life a hell-of-a-lot easier.]

hey Geek Nerd, are you posting shit for a VTX or VLX... because this is NOT the VLX thread. this is for the Big Boy Toys.... not little ass 600's.

[ScootGeek]

Yup. I Mis-typed the URL when I set it up earlier. :wall:

It would still download the correct manual. But, now it's both working and the link is formatted properly. Again, thank you (in all seriousness) for pointing that out so that I could fix it.

And, HitCat already tagged me. So, it's "ScatGook" if you would please. :grin:

I should have the VT750C2 up at some point after formation & roll-call in a few hours... And, I'm pretty sure I already know which forum to put it in.

Take care.
