Yeah, you're right. that doesn't get changed until 5K. So, you're in the ballpark. I did learn something a couple bikes ago. when you go in for your service, don't have any warranty work done then. Take it back later when it is free of charge. when I took my bike in for its 1000 mile and had about 6 things for them to check, they charged me by the hour. that first check cost over $300 and it was because they charged by the hour. All they put in your bike is 4-5 quarts of oil, a filter, and kiss you. that's it. I believe they figure, "hey, it's a new bike, everything that doesn't show itself in spades, it's good." they aren't getting paid to take care of your bike. Anybody that believes that is living in the old world. And is in denial. when your bike starts howling and making itself known, they''ll do something about it. Just think of all the people that are having issues with the speedometer of late.........and that's a known problem. Think they are going to spend time adjusting the head bearings on a new bike that looks to be doing alright:?? Sure they are going to charge you for it because they always have......way back when they used to actually do it. It's hiway robbery. They are going to just drop your old oil out, say they didn't see any issues with it, and charge you the normal healthy HD fee. Because .......they.........do........that........So, do yourself a favor and change your own oil, oil filter, (not the air filter, of course) and know you did it right yourself. If you see a major engine part resting amongst the oil, you can get that fixed). Nothing says you have to pay them to do it to you. that's all I'm saying.......... Pork. $63! Way to go, Willie D!
