For the last year of this Exciter generation the 340 is coded EX340G, and the manual is Yamaha LIT-12618-EX-41.
That book closes out a five-season run. It covers 1976 through 1980 and documents the Exciter 440 beside the 340, so an owner of a final-year machine also has the earlier specifications in the same volume. On a sled of this vintage, being able to look back a few seasons is frequently the difference between a confident repair and a guess.

Contents cover torque values and service limits, maintenance intervals, engine and carburation overhaul, power train, chassis and suspension work, and electrical diagnosis with wiring diagrams.
The troubleshooting tables begin from the symptom, which is usually where a cold-starting or misfire complaint actually starts, and work back toward the component at fault.
