Back in the early 1970s I owned a’67 175 DT. It was my first street bike and now fifty years and dozens of bikes later I got the itch to ride another. I bought one last January to be mechanically restored after I get it registered. Still waiting on the status of getting a bonded title but hopefully it should go through. Realizing it might be several years before it’s ready to ride I bought an HS .
I started to work on old Japanese bikes six years ago when I retired but they were mostly twins and all were four strokes. I heavily relied on YouTube videos and one of the first things I noticed was the lack of videos on Bridgestones. Well I never feared backlash from asking stupid questions so stand By !

This forum has been around for so long, nearly every question has been asked and answered, so search is your quickest way to get answers, but of course, you can always ask when that doesn't provide a good answer.   I assume you found the manuals in the downloads section.
