Default Helms or OEM service manual?

well I will be doing some mechanical work to my s2k and figured I'll probably need a service manual. So I was wondering which would be a better choice, Helms manual or the honda service manual. Thanks

I'm pretty sure the Helm manual *is* the OEM manual.

Honda contracts Helm to produce the manuals. There is an order form in the back of your owner's manual, and you will notice the address to send it to is Helm's.

And when the manual arrives from Helm, Inc. it will say "Copyright Honda Motor Company."

I have the OEM service manual from Ebay. Arrived with grease stains straight from a Honda stealership.

Best money I ever spent. I've used it a ton.
