Hmmmm.... saw this on eBay last night when I got home from picking up my 82 ATC250R. It's a real HONDA repair manual, but the cover is unlike those I regularly see. Since it had a reasonable Buy-It-Now, I did just that....

Check it out!!! Not sure if it's a First Edition printing or a special Canadian Version, but the cover is blue and has different pic and font. Interior of it looks like my 350X manual, but still has an 'ols school' font at the top with the 250R emblem. I noticed lil reflectors in the cover pic, so might be a C eh N eh D eh version.....

hmmm, definatly different then the US version, and it does have those reflecters, so maybe it is canadian or some other place version, but dont those canooks speak french? LOL, or some anyways, because its in english.. or maybe its like a dealers version or something., or does it have different languages in it?

Ahhh.... don't know.... I'm assuming it's just English. The guy's in Winnapeg, and doesn't take PayPAl so I got to send a MO then wait for the international boarder cross for the manual. I'll update as I get more info. The seller didn't know much about it other than it's a Honda manual form a Honda shop in C eh N eh D eh , eh ??

I have a couple older manuals that are like this ( Blue ). I would just say it is the older version.

Yeah I'm with Howdy, just and older one. I have a 200x one that is Blue also. Come to think of it, I think my XR500 book is blue as well.
