I purchased my 1999 800 Marauder a week ago tomorrow. It has only 4000 miles on it, it´s a beautiful bike and I love it. But I have a problem. My previous experience has been on Honda 125 and 250, 360 Enduro and 450 Honda - all street bikes. This 800 Marauder is a handful for me, as I expected it would be. Would anyone be kind enough to give me some hints on handling it at slow speeds in small areas, like turning around in a 12´ wide driveway, etc. It embarasses me to get off and push it around corners. Also - can anyone tell me where I can get an Owner´s Manual, Operating Manual for my bike?

Thank you very kindly for any of this you can help me with. You can reply to me at this forum or to my e-mail address: bedevil12@bellsouth.net.
