Anyone have a PDF version of the 1999 Nomad 1500 Service Manual?
I have one for the 1600 and the VN2000, but need one for the Nomad 1500.
Winchester had motor problems and was looking for this manual.
Thanks

Ground hog on the VROC site posted a location to the manual you need. <Winchester>
For those that want to hear another "Woods" horror story...
Last week while Winchester was riding up to Austin the clutch went out. After setting at Woods for a week they tell him he should trade it in.
He tried to get a clutch replaced and they said the motor and clutch parts needed rebuilt.
He asked if they could do a clutch and top in and was told no. Then when he asked how much and how long it would take they said at least $4600 plus 6 to 8 weeks before they could do it. They then again suggested he trade it in. He told them never mind.
He asked if he could just pick it up this Saturday and they said no because it was all torn apart and the mechanic was out till Tuesday.
After speaking to Jim at Megabucks, I drove down there Saturday with a trailer and told them I was there to get the bike. They rolled it out of the back completely assembled, with the same oil still in it.
I told them we were told it was all torn apart and couldn't be picked up till Tuesday. The guy didn't know what to say so he said the mechanic must have put it back together after he examined it. They charged $130 to release it.
So I trailed it over to Jim. He works on Harley's, and other bikes in his shop so he opened up the case. Nothing had been done and there was no debris in the oil. <Surprise face>
He did ask if I could get him a manual in case he has to do more.

Got the clutch replaced with no problems but has a rattle sound in the top end.
Everyone you ask you get a different opionion as to what it might be.
Winchester sold the bike to me and took my VN2000.
I put new tires and brakes on it and then ended up trading for a GW. (I had $3800 in it)
