    I bought the printed version of the Cyclepedia Service Manual for my Yamaha Virago/V-star 250 and it is very thorough even including tension of nuts. I am very happy with my purchase. Thank you from Australia for a quality manual. – Regards Roger

    Using the Cyclepedia XV250 online manual has made working on my cycle more straightforward. Instead of trying interpret the black and white pictures of other shop manuals, I can see the parts in their actual colors (even including the dirt, dust and mud). Now it takes me less time to complete repairs. Thank you – Steve W.

    The CYCLEPEDIA XV250 Virago online manual has been invaluable to me. As a novice motorcyclist it gave me the confidence to repair my motorcycle. The combination of excellent photos and step-by-step instructions works in a way that other manuals fail (I won’t mention names). Keep up the amazing work! Keep me on your mailing list for new manuals. – Izzy V.
