Got it delivered to my house today. 2017 LR.

 

I dig it! What are your first impressions?

 

Looks good XL1200C! I just pulled the trigger on a '18 Lowrider. After seeing it and riding it I couldn't resist.

 

You're right...dealer service fees are outrageous and cash cows for them. Doing your own service is relatively easy and if you buy a good jack, like those sold by J&S Jacks, you can pick up any bike and even do your own primary fluid. Right now, through Saturday, www,jsjacks.com is having a 15% sale. Well worth the money if you have a little room in your garage and a small amount of mechanical skill. I could certainly do my own service but choose to use a local friend who has a shop in his basement. Prices are reasonable, I can make an appointment and help work on my bike. I know that he is meticulous and covers everything that needs to be done, but I could do it myself if I wanted to. After all, how hard is it to remove a bolt, drain the fluid, replace the bolt, replace the fluid??? A trained monkey could do a basic service on a bike. The biggest pain in the ***, IMHO, is recycling the old fluid...

 

Congrads. You chose the right bike. By the way, you got one clean garage. Is that where the LR will be parked?
