The final SUV1200 model year is coded SUV1200-C, and it closes out the same manual the model opened with: LIT-18616-02-04, written across 1999 to 2004.
Six model years in one book means the specification tables are organised by code, so the plate on your hull is what tells you which column to read. With that settled, the manual covers engine overhaul with clearances and limits, jet pump service, fuel and cooling work, electrical diagnosis against factory values, and the complete harness diagrams.
The periodic maintenance chapter is the part most owners should read first, since it sets the intervals Yamaha expects for inspection, flushing and lubrication.
Illustrations throughout are the factory drawings, which is the quickest way to name a part you are holding.
