{"product_id":"1998-yamaha-v-star-classic-service-repair-manual","title":"1998 Yamaha V STAR CLASSIC Service and Repair Manual","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe first-generation V Star Classic arrived for 1998 as model code XVS650AK, and Yamaha documented it in service manual \u003cstrong\u003eLIT-11616-XV-00\u003c\/strong\u003e. That single volume runs through the 2000 model year and takes in the V Star Custom alongside the Classic, so a 1998 Classic owner is reading the factory's own words rather than a rewritten summary.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCoverage is the full shop sequence: specifications and tightening torques, periodic maintenance, carburetor and fuel system service, cylinder head and crankcase work, clutch and transmission, shaft drive, chassis, and the electrical system with its diagrams and troubleshooting tables.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTwo things matter when you check fitment. The part number is LIT-11616-XV-00, and the code you should find on the machine is XVS650AK. If your frame plate reads something else, the year band of the same manual may still apply, but verify the code first.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"FactoryManual","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49083125530846,"sku":"YAMAHAVSTARCLASSIC1998SRM","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0774\/4113\/8910\/files\/1998-yamaha-v-star-classic-service-repair-manual_d9cfc29e-e2c7-441b-aa9b-2c63798b4e8c.png?v=1789925827","url":"https:\/\/factorymanual.com\/products\/1998-yamaha-v-star-classic-service-repair-manual","provider":"FactoryManual","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
