Default 2000 road king inner primary temoval

I know im in the wrong spot,but unfortunately ive acquired a twinkie with a primary leak.after days o searching I discovered all the other forums are full of idiots.so I was wondering since I do have an evo.and am used to fixing my own bikes ifmy knowledgeable buddies will help with a question or two ? I am curious if the primary its the sameas far as removal as my 98 ultra? I've had that apart many times with ease ,i just wanna know if any stupid special
tools are.required to remove inner n outers.i know the big problem with the twinkies is the inability to work on them yourself.so hopefully you guys can tolerate an.occasiona qu es stionl about my latest mistake. Thanks

I've just looked through my 90 Evo manual and 03 Dyna, and the pictures are different, but the basics look similar. I reckon if you make a start you will get on fine and wonder what the fuss is about!

Twinkies come apart just like the Evo's, only difference is some of the electronic gizmos can give you fits. Don't worry about it, you can handle it.
