Seriously?

$60 is too much for The Bible on how to disassemble and reassemble your entire motorcycle correctly? That's less than an hours' labor charge at most shops (half an hour in some markets)!

Sorry, I'm a little cranky today....but c'mon. It's not a Chilton's book. It's the real deal, straight from the guys and gals who built your bike in the first place. Don't cheap out on the most basic of basics.

Man I get it.

I bet you have one sitting in your garage with just the info I need.

Guess I'll torque them next time. Going riding.

I'll order one Monday from my local "stocks nothing and then charges you shipping and handling on top of retail" HD dealer.

I should have it in 10 days. Seems like they only order things about once a week. Figured I would try to work with sponsor instead.

Joe (Ratbuell) is from a sponsoring dealership. If you ask nicely, I bet he'd be able to hook you up with a manual.

And there's always Al at American Sport Bike...

There, saved you a trip to your sucky dealer.

P.S. The manuals are worth every penny and then some.

Liberty HD is a sponsor and has most manuals in stock, you can order right from their website.

Unfortunately yes, my manual is in my garage at home (I always buy one at the same time as the bike itself)...and I'm at work, on my Uly, without my 1125 manual. I'll be happy to post later when I get the specs for you, since (although cranky today) I am actually a nice guy. And jealous that you get to ride (although it's rainy and cold and crappy here today).

We don't have one in stock at either of our stores, but I got into my shop foreman's box and looked up for ya:

Front axle torque, reverse thread, 39-41 lb-ft
Front axle pinch bolts 20-22 lb-ft
Front caliper attaching bolts 35-37 lb-ft
