No manuals but its pretty straightforward.Some time saving tips are to leave radiator and fan in.Just pull injectors out of intake leaving them in bonnets.Loosen lower clamp for throttlebody and leave it in airbox or just remove two bolts at front by airfilter and you can move box around enough without taking top off.Make sure you disconnect all wires and hoses dont forget the coolant bottle bleed hose.5/16 8point socket 1/4 in drive with extensions and swivels make getting headpipe off easy.Rear shock can still support quad if you turn it so bottle is under the rear subframe.I am sure others will add more.

There use to be a full article on step by stem instruction on pulling the motor out on cannondaleriders. I found it but the links says it no longer exists. I think I have a printed copy of it somewhere. I will see if I can find it and scan them.

another thing that I have seen that is very helpful is to stick rods in both sides of the swingarm area when you take the swingarm bolt out so that you don't have all the hassle when you try to thread the swingarm bolt back through everything.
Also, watch out for the nuts on the cradle. Sometimes they come loose, sometimes they stay put. Also, when putting it back in...the tow strap is your friend...wrap it around the front bottom of the motor and then up around the top of the frame to hold it in place so you can wrestle the back end around to get the swingarm bolt back through it.
