4.0 out of 5 stars
Good book but with a few shortcomings,
By A Customer
This review is from: Harley-Davidson Sportsters 1959-1985, Service, Repair, Maintenance (Paperback)
Lots of good info. Lots of diagrams and the book is broken down into chapters about specific areas of the bike and goes step by step for fixing most problems. Some good troubleshooting info. Not much info on some areas like the wiring for the lights and some things are hard to find but overall DEFINATELY worth the money. If you own one of these bikes and want to do your own maint. Buy this book.

The required owners manual,

This review is from: Harley-Davidson Sportsters 1959-1985, Service, Repair, Maintenance (Paperback)
.
If you own a Sportster made in the years covered by this book, you need this book. Buying this book and using the tools you already have (you do have and know how to use hand tools...right?) you will save a lot of money doing your own basic maintenance and some not so basic stuff. Even if you just use the manual to tell your wrench what is wrong. This is also very helpful if you plan on customizing your ride. Mine is now a bar-hopper. It helps in selecting parts that will fit your ride, by knowing what parts are stock and what after market parts will work. Buying parts that don't fit is an expensive lesson.
