Factory Service Manual DVD For Sale

[otbiker]

Sold the scooter yesterday, so I no longer need this. Covers all 2013 BMW motorcycles. Requires Windows operating system. This is a copy of the genuine BMW manual that the dealership uses. $25 with free shipping. As I won't monitor the board any longer, please contact me directly at:

Thanks, Marty

I'm really surprised someone hasn't bought this. When I found it a few years ago, everyone wanted to know how to get one. At minium, it shows you to remove all the Tuppeware...

That's because it was offered as a free download here, otbiker... What I'm wondering is how to get a more up-to-date version as this one always starts now with a warning that it is out of date.

This also happens to me as BMW offers an update to the dealers copy (that is what we have) I am pretty sure that if you searched the 45000 files on the disk you could find the pop-up and delete it. I would look but I do not have the time. The disk can be copied using the icon called "copy rsd" to your hard drive and eliminate all languages except English. Then when the file is found you can copy it back to a new disk. Reducing the disk size under 4 gigabytes so it will fit on a regular DVD. This is what I did

I have the ISO file, and Linux allows me to simply "mount" it as another file system. Then, I just open the newly-mounted file system and run the executable using WINE. No need to burn it to DVD (you'd need a double-layer burner with the appropriate recordable DVD media to do that). Cool beans.

That file can be extracted using 7zip then burned to a single layer disk as I have done and at that time you can delete all other languages

It looks as though there is a utility on that disk that can copy JUST the language files you want to your hard drive. I haven't run it beyond just starting it to see what it does. Since I don't actually have a Windows system, I'm not sure what'll happen if I do try to run it.
