Can't you get this guy to just brink you what you really want?
Is he too stupid to understand?
Yours is the RD07, the 1993 model right?
So you need the 1993 models service manual, which was the same if I am
not mistaken until 1995.
To bring you the 1998 or even the 1999 manual is plain stupid!
It doesn't have so many differences of course, but it still is different
in many aspects! (CDI, TPI, Carb hoses, suspension ...)

Can't somebody get a manual and make some copies for this guy?
I have somewhere the manual of my bike, but couldn't find it just now to
check the date, I think it is a '95 one, but if you want me to I will
look for it more this weekend.I am sure that your dealer doesn't deserve
the money he would get from this book, and I would also suggest you
don't let him fix your bike! If he is too stupid to pick the right
manual, are you sure he will choose the right spark plugs, chain, oil???

And another thing!
There are two shop manuals:
The service manual that is about how and when to make standard service
stuff, and the shop manual that is about taking your bike appart and
fixing things. I have the second one.
