[hjans]

Hi
I own a lot of ( digital) books,
Amongst others I already have :
1958-59 FL service ( rare??)
59-65 Duo service
61-76 part
1941-78 FL parts
1948-57 EL, FL service and parts
1959-69 Electra Duo service
Clymer Panhead service

except the one mentioned above.

I hear lots of good things about this book, so i want it in my garage !
Anyone did bother to scan it and/or owns a digital copy ?

anyone can/wants to help me ?

ehhh, why not buy ?
Over here ( Europe) a lot more expensive
and ( mostly) i prefer digital

I also was wondering about this also. I don't care if I technically own the book, just want the info inside. wouldn't care if it was on just regular ole printer paper. Any help out there?

I paid the $17.xx on Google Books. You can't save or print anything. I wish they'd put it back in print.

I personally love paper and have zero digital books. And do not care if I ever do. Nothing like thumbing through an old book for reference! I have over 700 motorcycle books not counting parts books and service manuals. Some are over 100 years old!
Just an old Luddite I guess!

True, Mike...

But digital are a lot easier to carry in your windshield purse, or around a swap meet!

Personally, I think if a book is worth having, you oughta' pay up and let the poor slob who bothered to write it get a little bit back for his efforts.

If a book is out of print, that;s another story.

In my search for someone who says and can actually build a bottom-end I went to a shop yesterday and while talking to the guy he pulls out a copy of "How To Restore Your H-D, by Bruce Palmer" and after he tells me that a 1965 was the only year Pan with external oilers I asked him about the book. "Yea I think I paid $43.95 for that one". I tell him that they are $250.00 to $600.00 right now and out of print and his reply was, "I need to get four or five to sell then". No I didn't leave him the cases that I need a crank for.

That's why i posted this post.
I did send a lot of people my digital editions, and just hoped that now i would get something ( a book! ) in return.
But.......talk......talk.......talk.
Ehh, what are we ? aA bunch of girls ?

Someone owns a digital Bruce Palmer edition and wants to share ??

I bought the Google Book but you can't Share it, Print anything, Just Look or Read it.

Sure you can. It is not instantaneous, but you can do it.

Just erase all the PNG files in C:\Documents & Settings\%USERNAME%\local Settings\Temporary Internet Files.

Browse to the book with IE. Scroll through all pages-each one will be downloaded as a PNG file to teh directory above.

Copy all the PNG files out, and use Acrobat or your favorite pdf creator to combine them into a pdf.

There you are.
