 +Below are some suggestions for manuals for your ride. \\
 +__You should have, at minimum, a Factory Service Manual (FSM) and a Factory Parts Catalog for your year model__. \\
 +**Note**: Updated manuals sometimes correct mistakes from the original manuals and some are updated simply to add mid year intro models. \\
 +
 +**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. \\
 +[[techtalk:​miscres:​miscres10|Click Here]] to view the Factory Service Manual page in the Sportsterpedia. \\
 +
 +**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. \\
 +And some of the exploded views are confusing or not related to each other on the same pages. \\
 +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. \\
 +Below is a simple list of original and "​latest edition parts catalogs.
 +The in-between year books may show different part numbers for the same year model bike. \\
 +[[techtalk:​miscres:​miscres12|Click Here]] to see the Factory Parts Catalog page in the Sportsterpedia for parts catalog uses and a full list of parts catalog numbers from 1957 to present. \\
 +(complete list of other parts catalogs and supplement catalogs that pertain to each year model on the bottom of that page) \\
 +Some often acquire several year model parts catalogs and that page will help decide which ones are right for them. \\
