    newbie with 81 gs650g

    hi, just bought an 81 gs650g. i just got my endorsement and can't wait to get riding, but there are issues i gotta sort through first. so i'll post in the appropriate place. i do have a quick question, where's a good place to download a copy of the factory service manual?

          Thanks! Quick question, the pocket tester the manual talks about is just a multimeter right?

                I keep meaning to ask: did you buy that 650G that was part of an assortment of GSes...came with some vetter bags?
