Service/Shop Manuals?
Which is better, Clymer or Chiltons? I have found the HD Manuals are about as worthless as most dealers! My 08 Dyna proved that to me, now I need one for my '11 Limited. Im having difficulties locating one online, so, anyone have any idea and which book/number would it be...
I've had HD manuals for years, you can check my history, as I just sold a bunch of my old ones..
I can't imagine a Chiltons or Clymer being ANY better. I have found them to be mostly useless in the past, but that's just me.
Good luck with your search.

I only wish they were available electronically as well. Well worth the dough.

Get either one and you'll see what a worthless manual looks like.

I have both the Clymer and the Chilton for one of my non-Harley motorcycles and it is frightening how much information is different between the manuals. Both have errors.
I have purchased the service and the parts manuals for every Harley that I have owned and and pleased with the level of detail in the Harley manuals.
