Default Harley Maintenance Book

I'm not very good with a wrench but as I get closer to the end of my warranty I wonder if there is a good refrence book with easy to follow directions on doing your own maintenance and repaires up to a level that can be done by a guy at with basic tools at home. or is my best bet to just go ahead and buy the extended warranty, and save my money to buy a new bike when my bike is paid off and try to sell it or trade it in. I really like my bike (07 flhtcu) any comments or ideas would be appreciated.

Richard, buy the HD service manual for the 07 FLH series. Your dealer has it, probably $60 and well worth it!

Get a copy of the factory parts manual to go along with your service manual. Sometimes the parts manual has better diagrams and make it easier to understand assemblies.

Take a look at these videos. Might work for you! http://www.knowthyhog.com/

In addition to the manual, the "Fix My Hog: Touring Maintenance DVD" is helpful. I've referred back to it several times in the past.
