Default Manual paid for tonight!

I bought my Ultra used. It was set up for a short person with shor arms. I have Ape arms and needed the handlebars moved up. Bought a service manual on thursday. Used it tonight to adjust my bars. I'm sure I woulda busted the **** or switch cover without instructions....manual goes step by step.
I'm sure the dealer woulda wanted 1/2 to 1hr to do this. Manual paid for!
