Default Warning!! Save your money.

Just a heads up for everybody.

Don't buy a warrior cd service manual off e-bay. It is only a pdf file on a cd that you can download for free from Sandwizards.com. Which I think is not accurate anyway. There are too many contradictions and poor quality pictures. The illustrated drawings look good, but the pictures are bad and you can't make everything out.

It seems to me that the seller on ebay just burned the pdf to a cd, put a decent looking label on the cd and is making money from it. I can peel the label away on the cd. A real manufactured cd doesn't have a label that will peel away like that.

Hey, don't blame the seller, he is just doing what those infomercial guys tell him to do!

I just posted to warn everyone to save their money. I made the mistake, so anyone else who reads this, don't have to.

I know and appreciate that. Just a little tongue in cheek poke at your new "buddy" there.

Yea, "buddy"...haha!

I thought I was going to have this nice software manual and all I get is a homemade pdf file. Live and learn, I guess.

I am working on making this pdf so that it has some functionality to it. Once I am finished with it, I will post it on here if I can. If not, and if anyone would like it, just let me know and I will send it to you.

Just about every one of those $5 engine manuals on CD are a PDF file that was burned on a CD, you were lucky he bothered to even make a label lol.

Here is a link to where you can download the PDF file for several makes and models of ATV's for free. maxmekker.com
