Default Service Manual

Just purchased a new '08 Heritage and was wondering where is the best place to buy a Service Manual?

I bought mine at the dealership on sale. I don't know if you can buy it anywhere else.

Dealership, Ebay or jpcycles.com. Probably some other places as well.

Dealer. You could order one online at a discount, but by the time you pay shipping you are near the same cost. Also it doesn't hurt to buy something from the dealer now and then (like we don't spend enough there already).

Got mine at the dealer for $50. If I find a Clymer I'll get it too just because.

If you find a 08 Manual somewhere else, go ahead and post it.
Not sure you have a choice.

one of the best investments you can make, then go to office max or staples, they can make it a sprial notebook for less than $5. and it will lay flat when you use it.

Don't forget a parts manual - great companion to the service manual.
