Manual noob question
Ok new to Harley and I must say I am most upset with the prices for service. I could pay another payment on a second bike for these stealer prices. I will stop my rant there as I could go on for ever.
Can someone please direct me to where I can purchase a manual for repair and service for a 2012 road king classic. I will turn my own wrench before I pay these out landish prices. 300$ for a 5000 service and even more for 10,000. I put miles on my bike and would need a second job for service alone.
Any in site or direction for a DIY kind of guy would be most appreciated. Thank you all in advance..

I bought my 2011 touring service manual at the dealer. $60 bucks and well worth it. You get them from Harley's site too. I almost had a heart attack after I paid for my first service too. Never again.

there are a number of dealers who sell online at about 20% off.
this is a daily topic, if you are willing and able to change the oil in the car, then the bike will be no problem.
use the factory manual and ask at the forum for tips and tricks
stay on top of services and keep records should you have a warranty concern.

I know what you're saying. If I didn't do all my own work there's no way I could afford to keep my bike. If you think oil changes are high, break something and see what they want to charge.
