Hello. I just found out about this place. I have been riding for about six years. I just bought my first Harley last year. It is a 2004 FXDI. I want to do most of the work on it myself. This seems like a great place for info to do just that.

Welcome from Spartan Country, Michigan!
I tell a lot of new comers to the forum to get: Factory Service manual and the Parts manual. Get a three ring binder and record all your maintenance, repairs, accessories, etc. This will be a great reminder of what was done when. And great material to pass along to the new owner should you sell and upgrade. Also know how large your fuel tank is, and record your fuel usage. I have an app called Simply Auto that I record all my fuel used. I use the odometer and use the fuel gage as reference only. I reset the odometer to zero on fill ups, and I know I can safely get 200 miles on a tank on around town riding.
Good Luck!!

 

Welcome from Philadelphia, enjoy the ride.

 

Thanks for the info! My first bike was a Yamaha Virago. It did not have a fuel gauge. Tracking fuel mileage by odometer was a requirement. I still do it with the Super Glide. A service manual is on my list of things to get. The previous owner of my bike kept all the paperwork for the bike. Now I have it and am adding to it. Now that the bike is parked for the winter, I can get some little projects done.
