i emailed honda about a '14 owners manual and

honda called me and asked if i would like a service manual and sent me one also she said they didnt even have a manual for the 14 in pdf or paper form

i guess ill have too try helm for a owners i just want the one correct under the seat im glad they sent the service manual though

Considering what the service manual costs, that was a really nice gesture!

I know the one i purchased for the 599 years ago was 130$ honda real respectable for sure

Sweet.

If any body is in need of a 13 owners i ended up buying a 14 owners manual so this 13 i would sell brand new, the 2014 manual i got from helm is torn so their sending me a spare as well

Out of curiosity, is the service manual worth the money? I have usually relied on Haynes or Clymer manuals where they detail a step by step teardown/rebuild. I have seen some hokey OEM service manuals over the years and was curious to know your take on it before I drop ~$65 on the OEM service manual.

Yes its super detailed better that any aftermarket manual

Whoops, the service manual comes from Helm Inc if that helps you determine its quality.

That's what I was curious about. I will go ahead and order one then. Thanks!

Man, a factory service manual sent for no charge is a very impressive gesture for sure. I'm of the opinion that it's a great manual, as is every other Honda service manual that I've owned. For those who actually find value in such manuals, I would also recommend Honda's Common Service Manual — it contains a LOT of information.
