Hello All,
Having been racing dirt bikes & atvs most of my life, I decided a few years ago to startriding on the pavement (legaly). I started off with an 04 Vstar in whichI customized, got it the way I wanted, & then gave it to my wife. Then the end of last summer I picked up a Hotrod bobber in which I have started wrenching on over the winter. My question to all of you, with the wealth of knowledge this site has to offer, what repair manual would be benificial for me to purchase for my bobber with these given components?

100" Revtech Motor
3" BDL primary
6 speed Roadmax tranny

Any & all responses will be greatly appreciated! Hopefully you can see the picture of my bike.....not too good at posting pictures!

Henny
