I have a 2012 HD softail slim.I want to replace everything in the gas tank.Is this a good book for this or is it a better one for that job. Thanks for the help
By Jimmy
If you're a novice mechanic, you'll certainly find this book useful. It goes over the fuel tank console, fuel tank itself, fuel pump and the fuel filter assembly. All of that's covered to help you service your bike.
Yes, if you were to select the 2006 Kawasaki VN1600D Vulcan 1600 Nomad Clymer service manual from our fit guide, you'd receive the correct book for servicing your machine.
Does the book have a page(s) dedicated for the necessary tools?
By Nes
It varies, depending on what machine it is that you have, but the required tool descriptions really only outline what specialty tools are required to get the job done. Other than that, you can pretty easily get an idea of the basic tools required by reading up ahead of time on the job you want to do. There's TONS of photos in each one of these books and, even for the novice mechanic, they provide an excellent reference on which to get the work done.
will this manual show how to tear down and reassemble.The total 1000 engine?
By Fab king wrench
complete reassemble of the engine with all torque specs for total engine and lower ends also?
This manual will cover general service procedures including teardown and reassembly of engine components. It is not an exact step-by-step guide like a FSM. It will cover each piece of the disassembly procedure and list toques and specs at the beginning or end of each chapter.
Yes, this manual will cover chain maintenance and replacement for the model you select at checkout. Guidance for tensioning and whatnot is usually included as well.
