Yes. Costs about $40-45.00 depending on your dealer. Part Number(s)
is(are):
1. Service Manual LIT-11616-09-22
2. Service Manual New Features LIT-11616-09-22 (as you can see 1 & 2 are
different books w/ same part #)
3. Service Manual Supplementary LIT-11616-09-19
> Are OEM parts still available?
As far as _I_ know they are. The bikes are only 5-6 years old and they are
still being sold in Europe. Others on the list will know for sure.

Technologically the neatest thing on 2 wheels. I call it a sport-tourer
biased towards sport, as opposed to my Concours which is a sport tourer
biased towards touring.
> Finally, do you know of any for sale?
