I know some people won't like it, but since you can't legitimately get them anymore...
I bought one of the bootleg DVDs off eBay for $25. I've used it a couple of times and it's quite good. From what I can tell it's a copy of the disc that BMW used to sell. Only downside is it runs in Windows only so I have to run it on an old clanky laptop I have sitting around.
I also bought a Clymer manual and it's good. Never had a problem with Clymer for other bikes. I haven't seen the Haynes for hexheads, I have found Haynes lacking for some cars in the past.
