Any company reproducing them?

If I remember correctly the rear tyre size listed in the specifications is incorrect, shows as a 16" tyre.

from time to time you will find the original owners manuals come up on ebay ...(if you would like to have the hard copy to keep on your bike)..as they do their dis-membering of yet another XII ...... everything is for sale......right down to the FINAL pile of nuts and bolts !

One guy on ebay gets them, but seldom never 03. He's always asking $60. Little steep, IMO. Thanks Triton

You don't need the owners manual. Just download the service manual

Download done, via zg1200.com.

I found the Owner's Manual to be a valuable reference for me as a newcomer to this bike.

Here is a link to it - be advised the server is VERY slow so be patient with it, but it answers a lot of the first timer questions.

I was fortunate that my ZG1200-B17 (2003) came with an owners manual and stereo manual. I have been meaning to scan it so I could put the original away and have it on my Ipad and phone (android).
I finally did this morning, but it's on the computer at work. i could upload, then share it tomorrow. Don't guarantee the quality as I didn't have time to look it over after doing the scan, but will tomorrow before copying it to devices.
The Stereo manual (owners, not repair) will come later.
Merry Christmas ,

So from this I understand that the 150/80-16 Dunlop E3 I just received for my 'new to me' 01 might have a fitment issue. I used the manual instead of crawling around to get the tire size.

Well, the second oops I have made with the Voyager.

The first was getting on my first bike in 20 years, riding home, and having the neighbor's bulldog attack the front tire as I pulled through the yard to the shop. The only damage was to my dignity, the dog's head when I caught him, and my back (dang, that thing is heavy).

I just went and checked 2 1987s, a 1990 and a 1993, all Canadian sold Voyagers, along with the #-61 last issue of the supplement, and all are 150/90 15" rear tyre size.
I just wanted to be certain my eyes didn't play any tricks when I checked them for the previous post I submitted about the size listed in the online owner's manual.
I always read specifications over very carefully.
Yes they certainly are heavy when they start to go over.

Yes! The real owner's manual lists the tire sizes as:
Front: 130/90-16 [Use Dunlop MT90B-16]
Rear: 150/90-15 [Use Dunlop MV85B-15]
