Manual is pretty handy and worth the price of admission.

I called my local dealer and they didnt have it in stock and i want to do the install now! I dont post much at all but sometimes glance over stuff on here. I have been on other forums and everyone seems to help each other out and not trash talk someone for asking a question. There is no reason to be a dick.

A Service Manual is the best $50.00 you will ever spend on your bike!
No one's being a 'dick', just passing along some friendly advice!

Then maybe you should go post your question on one of the other forums?

JohnX, now you've gone and rustled feeathers. You better find a shop with a manual fast because by tomorrow your name will probably be on the "no manual for you" list at dealers across the country. Now the only way you will probably get a manual is to buy the 2011 manual, you're banned from the 2010 but they'll let you have the 2011 because you don't own one. Then just take your bike into another dealer and trade up to the new model. See, problem solved, you don't need to waste any more time on your cam change.

Nobody likes to waste $$$. I believe your true sentiments about the SM are reflected in your original post.

HD's SM doesn't provide a single, consolidated procedure for doing a cam swap. Instead, it uses a series of steps (e.g. remove exhaust, tank, etc.) rather than repeating them for a cam swap, cylinder removal, etc.

As for wanting to the job "now," best wishes to you. Haste and impatience have never been my friend when working on my bike.

Today the cams...
Tomorrow the primary main shaft seal...

You cater to liberals and they want more & more.
It'll never end.

Let him go buy a damn manual like the rest of us have done.
