Default DIY Maintenance

Can anyone give advice on the 5K interval maintenance, It's gotten to costly to have the dealership do it. What all does it entail, special tools, misc?
Thanks

Pick up a Harley Service Manual for your bike. There is a section on Maintenance and what is needed by schedule. There is a section in the Appendix on Tools. For the most part wrenches, sockets, screw drivers, etc. are needed. Multi Meter and other diagnostic tools are needed if you plan to go deeper than oil changes and clutch adjustments. There are a load of "How To Videos" on YouTube and of course lot's of info to view in the forum.
