When I purchased my 2001 Buell Blast, the previous owner was gracious enough to give me an electronic copy of the Service Manual he was able to get his hands on shortly after he purchased the bike. This manual has everything you ever wanted to know about servicing your blast, from oil changes, to electrical work, or just tinkering on the Buell Blast engine.
So, without a lot of fanfare, here are links to each chapter in the Service Manual for you to reference or download. No payment required, no waiting for a book or CD to be delivered, all is right here for your reference and use. Hopefully this will help you as much as it helped me.

If you would prefer to purchase the Buell Blast Service Manual in book form, you can order directly from Amazon by clicking here. This is the official manual as distributed by the Buell Corporation, but be forewarned as it has a list price of over $60.
Edit: Getting lots of feedback on how helpful this has been to everyone, glad I could assist. Please feel free to pass the link along to other Blast riders. Even though I no longer own my Blast, rest assured I will keep this link active for everyone that needs to download the Buell Blast Maintenance Manual.

Kudos. You’ve helped a lot of us!
how may I get a manual for 2001 Buell blast
They are basically all the same, regardless of year. If you are looking for a paper manual, follow the link in this posts as you can purchase on Amazon.
hey Craig!
Thanks for all of this… Wondering if you might have 2002 Buell Blast? They seemed to have changed a lot between the two years.
Again, Much thanks
Hey Cody – Don’t have the bike anymore but it was a 2001. I’m fairly certain not much changed on these bikes across the model years.
Dude your the best been looking for this for almost ever…lol….. got myself a blast great looking bike some mods but overall tight as bike thanks for the upload thinking of making some in depth videos on YouTube since I’m always do g somethung on her…
Mil gracias brother
mucho bueno!
Thank you the manual is great, but I’m trying to find out what parts are interchangeable. I have a 2001 and ineedthrrt handcontrol switch, key ignition switch, stater, and voltage regulator. What years of blast parts are usuable for my bike
bike
You’ll want to consult with a Harley dealer. They will have the Buell books and can tell you all years which will use the same part numbers as yours. perhaps they will even know off the top of their head, but worst case they will have to look it up. if I’m not mistaken, 02 and up should work as they are all P3 body, but I could be wrong as I just started researching these.
THANK YOU!! Funny, as I’m also an IT guy who took up biking and my first one is an 02 Blast. I will be fixing it up and this manual has already proven indispensable.
Awesome. Glad to hear it’s helpful. I still regret selling mine.
GOOD AND EXELENT CONTRIBUTION THANK YOU VERY MUCH !
SALUDOS FROM MEXICO.

Thank you for making the service manual available. My neighbor is giving me his 2000 Buell Blast and it has been sitting in a dry garage for over 10 years! It looks great, but I am going to be examining everything on it to insure function and reliability. I know that I will be visiting this site to glean service information from the manual. Again, I am very grateful for your kindness in making this possible.
Good for you. Nothing better than a free bike.
could not get it to down load
Not sure, I double checked and all seems to be fine. Maybe try to clear your browser cache and try again.
Many thanks its fantastic your great
This Service Manual has easy-to-read text sections with top quality diagrams and instructions.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for posting this. I’ve been looking all over trying to find this information, and even hard copies are becoming more rare (and expensive). I rode extensively up until 2001 when my last bike was stolen. Now that the kids are older, I find myself frequently without a car. I just picked up a 2008 Buell Blast and it’s become by daily commuter. Ride on! -r
I’m glad you found this helpful Russ.
Anyone know why my 2001 Buell Blast only starts with starting fluid when there is a full tank of gas the hose leading to the carb and the carb have been cleaned twice
Anyone know where i can find a manual for an 09 buell blast?
Chapter 14: Electrical Connector has a broken link… the rest download okay. Does anyone have this chapter so I can have a complete copy?
Are you getting an error message or does the page simply not display? It just worked fine for me.
For me, only Links 1, 6, 11, 13, & 15 work. The rest give a “The page isn’t redirecting properly” error.
Interesting! Just tried it from my work computer and received a similar error, although I am able to get to some of the links you can’t. Appears to be an issue with the CDN I’m using. I’ll fix as soon as I can, but it will probably be a day or two until I’m able to get to this.
Hi there! I’m still getting a “cdn.craigerson.com redirected you too many times” for the Electrical page. Is this PDF still available? You can also email me if that’s easier!
Hey Amy. Sorry I’m just replying to this. I just tried to access that page and it worked fine for me. Possibly try clearing your cookies or use an incognito window. Let me know if that doesn’t work, and I’ll take a further look.
You’re right! It worked this time. Thank you!!
Any chance you could set up something like a Dropbox share for the files?
Thanks Craig, your post of the manual came as a very welcome relief. I’ve downloaded all files and and am very happy.
Many Thanks….
Glad I was able to assist!
I picked up an ‘02 Blast as Coronavirus basket case project. This will help greatly! Thank you!
I enjoy, cause I discovered exactly what I used to be looking for.
You have ended my 4 day lengthy hunt! God Bless you man.
Have a nice day. Bye
Still useful. Thanks!
Thank you so much! I just got a 2001 Blast. You are a life saver!
You are the s#$!!$.

Thanks very much! Now I have a clue! 🙂
