For the record I was able to a) convert the PDF to a PRC using MobiCreator and b) convert the PRC to an ePUB using Calibre - but the results were just short of awful.

My experience is that converting technical manuals such as this from PDF to any e-book format is not worth considering - much easier to read as a PDF.

PeterT its a Secure PDF, that means it cannot be altered, in Tracker's XChange the annotation tools are grey. I printed the PDF to a PDF using Bullzip's PDF Print 'driver', then I could convert that PDF to a .doc with Nitro, but the results were awful -- but my experience with Nitro is limited and you probably know a million tricks that I don't know.

@Isla, The blank pages are intentional - they're scattered throughout the book, so that owners can make the maintenance of their motorcycle into an art-form. The TOC in the original PDF does not have links to the pages.

Take Adoby's advice, get a decent PDF reader for your phone. If you take the print PDF2PDF route then you could annotate that PDF.
