mind, at least Haynes do take photos. The FWM hasn't got such. sometimes,
the photos in Haynes are useful.
I find both useful, in fact - some things are hard to find in the FWM, and
easy to find in Haynes.
Further, not everything is in the FWM either; although most of what isn't is
also not in the HBoL. found HBoL has better wiring diagrams, mind you, I
think it was Clymer, some motorcycle manual other than Haynes anyway, used
to have colour wiring diagrams, which saves all the hassle of looking at the
colour code on page umpty-three to see what GU/BE means.
