Ed, what is the VIN# of your bike? Has it had all the updates? including ladder bars, front bearings, etc...?

Ed, the time would all depend on how much depth I needed to go. I would try to accomodate as much information as possible. Not sure if owners would rather have a book version or video version of the repairs. I would surely try to include as much information as possible for most repairs.
Ok folks, The manual is going to be a much needed item for the Stallion. At this moment, I am still verifying that I will not be doing anything that will cause me legal trouble. But, I need you guys to make a forum thread letting me know the most common repairs needed and requested. The book is going to be a work in progress but I am trying to make it to where the first draft would be ready around spring time. Any information that you guys request, I will will make sure to try and include. The wiring will be the longest and most difficult part. But i plan on making a custom wiring manual for both older and newer Stallions, since they had 2 different wiring harness. As for the specs, I have the specs already.
Job security is what nick told me from TBMS.....he's gone now....He's right! I am considering one, and there is nothing out there. Seems kinda fishy. jimsjinx
Well, to help you guys out, the service manual for the Stallion was something I was attempting to do when I worked there. The hard part about it was trying to write a step-by-step manual while working full time everyday. The Stallion can be a nightmare to work on sometimes, but it can also be fairly easy. One of the most frustrating things to service is the wiring. there are factory wiring diagrams for later model stallions. I will have to do some searching in all my paperwork, but there was anewer style wiring harness installed in the Stallion after a certain VIN number. I know all of this, because i was there...lol. We went through alot of changes to try and make the Stallion easy to service. The earlier VIN #'s did use the wiring schematic of the ford ranger. Alot of dealerships do not like to work on them because they simply know NOTHING about the trike, except for the motor and transmission. That is why I work on them in my shop, if needed. I know the bike and understand the bike. If you can find a good trustworthy shop or mechanic to work on it, then keep em. I have always told members on here that I will help anytime I can. I do have alot of information and paperwork from my notes. The people a TBMS have always done a great job with helping customers in any way possible. If that doesnt seem to help, please feel free to contact me.
