I'm told that Haynes do not cover this engine due to the low numbers sold in the UK, they do of course cover the range of 2-stroke engines produced in house by MZ. I believe the Rotax is produced in Austria, I have searched the web, one result found but a  German version--- not a lot of good to an old country boy !       Best Regards    Report

Wales and Indre 36 Posts 109 Re: Rotax 4-Stroke single 500cc Try a Google search for 'Rotax Motorcycle Manual' and you might get a few links, but currently on ebay(uk) at the moment is item No. 180218798985, which covers quite a few models I think. Hope this helps, Aitch    Report

Although I thnk most of the current Rotax marine focus is on greener 2-strokes, it might be worth looking at some of those companies for the information you want.   Will intentionally blank signature http://www.vienormande.com    Report
