+__You should have, at minimum, a Factory Service Manual (FSM) and a Factory Parts Catalog for your year model__. \\
+**Factory Service Manuals (FSM)**; \\
 The FSM will have the most accurate information, procedures and specs. \\
 Clymer and Haynes make service manuals also for Sportsters but some of the information is in error to the factory FSMs. \\
 And some of the information in the aftermarket manuals is vague in information or procedures but they may have more pictures. \\
 So it is generally said you can get use from both an aftermarket manual and the factory service manuals but get the factory manual first. \\

+**Parts Catalogs**; \\
 The Parts Catalog has part numbers of course but it also has exploded parts views. \\
 However, IT IS NOT INTENDED TO BE AN ASSEMBLY MANUAL. \\

 But, all in all, the exploded views do help finding what goes where. \\
 Most of the fasteners listed in the relevant parts catalog individual pages have thread sizes and lengths also in case you need those. \\
