Grab the service manual for your particular bike. It shows the full maintenance schedule as well as all the procedures. I could list out what is done on a 2003 Carb'd Softail if that would be helpful.

Nothing you can't do yourself with a manual and some basic tools. Hardest thing for me was the steering head adjustment. With all the cables attached I couldn't get an accurate read on the fall away test. Ended up having it done by the dealer @ $42 where I'm sure they just did it by torque or feel.

Highly recommend the HD Service Manual for your model/year. Best investment tool. This was posted online.
