== Thanks! ==
First: yes, please mirror them! Also, if you would like a place to put your Wiki database backups, I can give you some space on my site (about 50Mb) to put that.
Second: Excellent OCR! My scans aren't searchable becuase I don't
have Adobe Acrobat - just a bunch of Linux shell scripts. I would
like your to make your searchable versions the '''primary''' versions
on my manual pages, with my orginals as a footnote (just in case someone wanted to re-OCR them)
Thanks again!

While I'm not looking to upload complete repair manuals in full, I think these are ok as they are probably out of print anyway and could be a good resource to anyone with a similar bike. If you want I can mirror these manuals to cyclechaos.com and have links to your domain as well. One thing I noticed about these manuals and I'm by no means an expert on PDFs is that they don't seem to be searchable in acrobat. I played with it a second and produced this http://www.cyclechaos.com/uploads/Manuals/Newman_Indian/Engine_125-5_Assembly_Manual.pdf.
