    I have had a fellow biker from the UK reach out from the SOHC forum about any Service Manuals, Owners Manuals etc (English versions).
    Apparently they were never imported into the UK or Europe and info is scarcer than Rocking Horse droppings.
    But... he seems to believe they were delivered to Australia, not that it makes these manuals any easier to find.
    There are Japanese ones for mega bucks but not what he is after I guess.
    So if anyone happens to know of a manual either hard copy or soft copy it would be good to help out.

    Cheers

    Has the requestant tried looking for the CRF230F that is still being made in Brazil (same engine different bodywork).
    It looks like a nice little bike (also known as CB223s) but I have no knowledge of any in Aus, only CRF's.

    Thanks Craig.
    I didn’t have a chance to scour around too much last night.

    It does look a nice little bike, there were a few takes on the Flat Tracker look around the time but replica race bikes overtook most other designs.

    I am not even sure if it did ever come to Australia. If it did it would be quite a rare little bike if one could be found.

    A smaller version of my FT500 (plus an R to make it sound fast). :)
