Lost Sportster manual

A couple months ago, I downloaded a PDF of a 1957 Sportster manual from some site that I can no longer find. There was a charge to download.
My computer crashed recently and I lost the manual, and a huge amount of other files too. I am searching high and low but can't seem to find the site where I downloaded the manual from.
I was hoping someone can help me find the site.

While I don’t specifically see ‘57, this place has a bunch of good stuff available for free.

K Daddy, it just occurred to me your wanting a pdf download, probably free even. I can't help you there, but I did find a pdf download for the 57xl that will cost you $9.95.

Good luck with your quest.

K Daddy, according to this http://www.harleykmodel.com/literature/ ... index.html
there were no manuals produced between 1950-1958. So I have no clue what that pdf 57xl is all about.

Hi All
I have what I realize now is a repop manual. Content wise it is exactly like the 59 to 69 SM. On the cover however it says 57 to 69.
