By no means am I a mechanic; however I can read reasonably well and sometimes even follow simple instructions. That is why I have always paid the $60 and bought a service manual for my motorcycles. Last week, when I traded my ’07 geezer glide in on a 2010, I gave the service manual to the dealer figuring it would be beneficial to whoever bought the bike. Whether they will ever get it will never be known and I regret parting with it in such a manner. Tonight, I just stumbled on a 2003 Sportster service manual (P/N 99484-03) that I have had for the past seven years. It looks brand new with the exception of a couple of dog eared pages. There are no greasy fingerprints or ripped pages. If anyone on the forum has use for such an item, shoot me a message with your address and I will send it to you. I’m not selling it; I will give it to someone who will use it.

It just doesnt get any better than this, I am sure you will make some one VERY happy, Capital Jack

You may want to send pru a Private Message (PM).

I just saw him online a short while ago. He is fairly regular here so he might see your post but a PM wouldn't hurt. Pru is a great guy and has proved that many times here at HDTalking.

Rosco · Oct 22nd, 2010, 08:57 PM

Thanks Tank, I'll Send Him A Message

pru7536 · Oct 23rd, 2010, 12:36 PM

Tank, thanks for telling Rosco how to contact me and the kind words. I spoke to him at 1215 today (Saturday, 23 Oct.) and got his address. I’ll take the manual to the post office and get it on the way to him. He sounds like he’ll be another excellent addition as an HDT member.

Great news. As far as the kind words, nothing but the truth.
