Shop Manual
Factory or Haynes? I am no mechanic and pictures will be a big help, what say you?
Did the dyno last week, it runs way better! Smoother, cooler, and better throttle response. The guy uses a Factory Pro machine, the only one of its kind in SoCal he tells me.

Get the factory manual. It isn't that much more than the others and it is a lot better.
As far as the parts and electrical manuals, I found that I don't really need them at this point, but I ride a Dyna and there isn't much to a Dyna. If you are new to wrenching the parts might not be a bad idea and also if you have a lot of electronics on your bike or are not familiar with the works of electricity then the electrical might do you some good.
For sure the factory service manual though.

There is no comparison betweeen the two. The factory manual is the one to get. Get the parts book too. It will come in very handy.

Thanks for the tips guys, I was leaning towards factory but wanted some opinions on the Haynes too.
