Long shot request,I have a friend 89 years old still riding a Piaggio X9 250 year 2000 ( Honda engined ) he wants a paper edition of a workshop manual or owners handbook.Can get a downloaded one but he wants a book,don’t think Haynes did one? But if anyone can advise where I could get him one much appreciated,thanks

There's a Haynes Manual 2760 on eBay now which might cover it?

That wouldn't be 'DaveSilverbonce' would it? If so, I remember meeting him on one of our rideouts here in Essex. Think it was Mottzas 'Pie & Mash' run a few years back. He had an X9 then to. May be the same one if it's him. Nice chap.

Might be worth trying the Modern Vespa site too (it's not just Vespas, it's mostly all Piaggio bikes) as they have a great Wiki page with manuals for lots of Piaggio bikes that you can download and I think some links to where you can buy them. Good hunting! ;)
Probably not ugly enough for the 'Ugly Bunch'! :lol:

Been riding for 55 years & owned too many bikes to list here...

Neither of us are “silverbonce” although we both have a good head of grey hair lol. My mate has been riding for years mainly British bikes but his Piaggio he rides mostly these days he retired just 4 years ago! He does all his own maintenance and a manual is what he is after.I have a lot of Piaggio parts left over from my Hexagon fuel tank/radiator/seat/ transmission rollers would they be any use to him?

If he can get a downloadable manual why not just download it and print it off ?
Just a thought.
