Check out www.fixmyhog.com
I have not purchased this but have heard it is very informative. I also recommend the Harley service manual.

FixMyHog is pretty good,

It helped me work with my forks, oils, wires, and Carburator, Magic really.
What I did is 'rent it' from http://smartflix.com/ and you can return them after a week.

American Iron has good tech sections, This month it has the 'handlebar' issue which is good for doing all throttle/clutch/breaks cable servicing.

The Service Manual is essential, Clymer is a good add on.

Above all, when your hands get dirty on the bike, the less money you spend at the shops, the more proud you are of it and you feel more of 'Harley Rider' not a 'Harley Owner', the later sucks

I'd get the HD manual. I use mine all the time. We also have a Suzuki Intruder and I have the Clymer's for it. It's pretty decent as well.
