Replacing Drive Belt on 03 Fatboy

I just joined the forum and just purchased an 03 Fatboy. Drive Belt snapped on me. Is this a job I can do or should I leave it to the dealer. Where could I find the instructions from the service manual? Haven't had time to purchase the manual yet but want to get back riding quickly.

You better get a service manual first its a pretty easy job but you have to damn near dis assemble the whole bike. take off the oil bag, starter, outer primary cover, primary drive set, and the inner primary, make sure you replace the seals and gaskets. It sounds hard but it really isn't I can pull my entire primary off and get it back together in around 3 1/2 hours. Just read the manual then read it again before you start because every thing has to come off in order then go back ithe same way only in reverse or you will be pulling your hair out. the best tip is to Read Read Read
