Clymer is only good for holding the shop door open.

FSM and Parts Book as noted above, worth every penny.

FYI....the Clymers tend to cover a range of years so there will be multiple sub-paragraphs to describe the differences. Time consuming to jump around and easy to work off the wrong sub-paragraph. You spend more time finding the right place in the book than its' worth.

The Clymer can be handy…..if you have a built bike not specific to one year. If it’s a bike with a combination of different year parts….

Sometimes….they do offer advice and sometimes different pictures that the factory manual does not show.

Best bet….have the factory shop manual on your phone. That way, you’ll never leave home without it. Print the pages you need while working….toss them when you’re done.

eBay is the first place I'd look for older Parts and Service manuals, you can find them in pretty good shape.
