Carb rebuild book

Post by ScottishBadger »

Hey folks, does anyone know of any one that stocks Mike Nixon's CBX1000 carb rebuild book - in the UK? Postage to the UK from America is a killer....

If you might have a Honda shop manual, that information is quite good and helpful. I don't know of a UK (or EU) source for the Nixon book.
