Hello all!
I am trying to find a service manual for this year and the only one available is $285 and printed. I don't really want to pay that much.
I am tempted to buy the 2010-2019 Haynes combo of print and online.
Anyone else in this boat?
Thanks!

I bought mine from Helminc and it was $50. For a factory manual it's extremely basic.

Is it worth getting though? I'm torn between older Haynes and this. Since the engine is different and other changes are present, I'm leaning towards HelmInc, but 50$ is still quite expensive if the manual isn't up to standards.

Per the 2024 Honda PCX 160's Owner's Manual, HelmInc is Honda's preferred vendor for service manuals.
From experience, I can tell you that an authorized Suzuki Service Manual (in paper) is almost double that of the PCX's... and mine has paid for itself.
Pick any basic maintenance or repair chore on your scoot, do it yourself, and you'll save be more than your $50 spent on the manual... on labor alone.
If you're mechanically inclined, or willing to learn, there's really no downside to purchasing a service manual.
Are there better manuals available? Possibly. But I'd have to ask why Honda recommends HelmInc if there are better options.
