Topic: 1973 Honda CB500 F Service Repair Manual or Performance Manual

[IntricateMotorworks]

Does anyone know a good manual to buy for service for a 1973 Honda CB500 Four? Or even a performance manual or good book to get on performance options. I have seen the Clymer service manuals, but is this a good manual to buy or does anyone have any other suggestions overall with this topic. Thanks in advance

Clymer's are all good and well, but they don't include everything.  I've actually been doing quite well working solely out of the original Honda service manual available here for free on the site.

One of the best is found in a french publication (Moto Revue No. 10). Very thorough with pictures not found elsewhere.
