Newbie here. I just picked up a 1989 FG1200 that has been off the road for several years and needs a complete resurrection. This isn't my first cycle project, but my first FJ. I always like to start with getting a complete set of factory service manuals when digging in, and trying to figure out how to get started with the Yamaha system. Do I purchase the FJ1100/1200 FSM (LIT-11616-06-94) and then the appropriate Supplemental for 1989?
Below is a picture at the Seller's place. Complete, just needs a whole lot of care.

I would get this immediately - will include all supplements thru 1991

I don't know how often paper copies come up - but this a genuine factory service manual
Looks like there are a few on eBay
Welcome, looking forward to seeing your progress.
I must admit that I love my Haynes FJ1200 manual. It's basically got everything it I need. However, as member of the UK FJOC for over 30 years, I've got a lot of their technical bulletin's too that deal with specific jobs their workshop have come across that owners get stuck with.
For the amount of money they cost, I'd get a Haynes as well as that factory one that Chris posted a link to........you can never have too many manuals !!! :good2:
Great! Thanks guys!
