Looking at new cruisers and was able to view some shop manuals on the web, but not all. The Road Star looks good because of the extended valve adjustment schedual and the job of doing it. But some other's I seen schedual the first 600 mile service and every 4000 mile service valve adjustment. On one bike I read I was exhusted just reading the tear down process to even get to the adjusters. When I got to the part of intake manifold removal I closed the book. I would not want to do it and I know a dealer would charge plenty. Then agin the Road Star might be too big for me. Is it possible to get your leg out from under a layed down bike weighting around 800 pounds? Or is there enough leverage there to stand one back up if it's stand sunk in the pavement? It will be the first bike in over 30 years. And there won't be anouther one. I would like feeling firm on the interstate and a company offering a good interest rate. I guess I'm looking for the perfect bike.
