| Does anyone have or know of a place to get a silverwing owners manual in an electronic form? If you have one I'd like to request it from you and if you know where I can get one could you please point me to the right web site? Thanks  |

| Thanks. What they have is only the 2005 model. I guess it's pretty much the same as my 2008, but it's better than nothing.
Thanks again. |

When I registered my vehicle on Honda Ownerlink they provided me the link to the Owner's Manual ... hen I found that the convention worked for 2005-2007. Try it and see if you can get the 2008 Owner's Manual link._________________ Bill - Georgetown TX 07 Silver Wing ABS Clearview w/vent, Givi E96/TB19/E52 with Admore Lighting, Alaskan Leather, Wrist Rests, 3M Solas tape, K&N air, Hyperpro spring, Grip Puppies, Airhawk, Utopia backrest, Stebel, Apexcone HIDs, StingerZ LEDs (w/Backoff WigWag), Knight Rider Sequential LED, NGK Iridium, Power Commander III, Manic Salamander, Saeng mirrors, Garmin Zumo 660, Dark-Side Sumitomo Tire  |

| There were no 2008 SWings, at least not stateside. But the 2002-2007 service manual seems to works just fine for my '09. Haven't had any issues yet... |

| I personally own a 2008 Silverwing. The place I bought it from last year (it was leftover from 2008 but new) told me that Honda didn't make any 2010 models because of down sales in 2008 and 2009. He thought there would be new models in 2011 though. This was all in August and I never really looked into it since.
I don't know or care if any of that is true or complete BS, I'm just saying that *I* have a 2008. |

| I may be mistaken regarding the 2008 Swing; I really think Honda skipped a model year on us. I'm not sure exactly how to tell what model year you truly have. My best guess would be to log on to American Honda's owner link at https://www.ahm-ownerlink.com/login.asp and register your VIN. You don't have to be the original owner nor be financed with AHM. One thing you can do is sign up for e-mail notification of recalls. Hope this helps... |

| To decode the VIN and determine the model year use the chart provided here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vehicle_identification_number#Model_year_encoding
The page contains more info about the VIN and is subject to the accuracy of the wiki world. The model year chart is accurate based on personal research and experience. |
