Does anyone know where I can obtain a service manual.I checked on the Polaris website,did not see it.What is the cost?Does it contain a cd-rom or is that sold separately?

I finally got my manual after 2 months of backorder. Didnt get the CD everyone talks about. Dont really need it. Dont need it, grew up when books were the way to go. I find flipping through pages to be easier.

I got mine shortly after I received my Vis in Nov'07. It has been an invaluable source of info for the few things I have done on my bike: R&R left speaker grill for installation of a Butler mug holder, R&R console for powder coating.

I was at the dealer last week and the paper bound version was $55.00. I passed on that and ordered a CD Rom version on Ebay for $9.99 and free shipping. You can do a Buy It Now for 24.99 but nobody is bidding so you should be able to get it for 9.99. It is a PDF version. There are more posted if anyone is interested.

Why would you want to buy the manual when you can go to the link in the Technical forum and download the PDF for free. I posted this about two weeks ago

I got mine in the mail last week, and I can't speak for others, but I have had mine on order for 2 months as well. (I didn't get the CD either).

Funny thing was, when you posted the link I went in and canceled my order. Then the darn thing shows up a couple of days later.

That's okay, the paper version is handy.

I personally prefer paper as well (just to old school, I guess). I ordered mine from the Dealer when I bought the bike. It took about a month to get, but otherwise no real problem.

I too prefer the paper version. Usually i print out the section i need if i am at home. But at the shop i have my terminal near the bike so its just as easy with out the oil or torn pages and the occsional cup of coffee spilled on the book.
Also, there are no more CD's with manuals from polaris. Manuals will only be shipped when ordered. Polaris is supposed to be putting all the manuals online for the dealers. So you have to be a dealer to log in and obtain access. I have yet to see this happen.

I like the Color in the PDF version. I was thinking of printing out a color version and binding it in sections rather then one big book. I would also make the binding lay flat so it would not fall apart.
