Which Manual(s) to Buy?

[hmgn5633]

I want to buy a service manual for my Ruck.

The Honda website (http://powersports.honda.com/the_goods/parts_and_service/) refers you to Helm Inc. (www.helminc.com) to buy manuals. Helm Inc. shows this service manual: 2003-2005 NPS50/S Ruckus Service Manual Part #: 61GEZ02 and also suggests this one: Common Service Manual, Part #: 61CM002.

Does anyone know if both are needed or have any experience with these manuals?

Get the Ruckus specific one. It has all the info you'll ever need. It's great and everyone should have one.

The common service manual is just generic crap. You don't need it.

If your Ruckus is a 2003-2005 model get an older Ruckus specific service manual but they did update it for 2006 so if that's what you've got get a 2006 manual.

There's usually a few service manuals on eBay (there's one right now) if you search for 'Honda Ruckus' or you can get one at Helm Inc. or repairmanuals.com. Helm Inc is slightly ($1) cheaper but there shipping might most more (it's quite a bit more to Canada).
