You damn skippy it's a rite of passage for me....I do it for all my vehicles...rainy day or late evenings...Country music playing OL cooking some grub...Cold one...I ain't paying no Shrink for therapy....

 

Sounds a bit steep. Just had the 1,000 service done at Hertitage HD in Concord, NH. Paid $240 and that included Syn 3 and Bell Ray synthetics.

 

I agree that you need to be very careful on which techs touch your bike. I just had the local HD shop mount and balance a new rear tire on the rim. They put 53lbs of air in a tire designed for 38lbs, the sidewall states max of 42lbs! Your safety and their profits do not follow the same path.

 

DIY And save the cash...

 

They get 350 here in CNY. A friend had his RK done. They took 40 min. to get it done. Seems like a rip off to me. I did mine myself. Moble 1 in the engine and primary, Royle purple in the trans.

 

I agree 100% had a full service done March/09,missed a broken exhaust pipe clamp that I forgot to mention to them when I dropped the bike off, they had the nerve to want another 1hr labor+ clamp to correct their error.

 

$249 for mine, they did a good job.

 

I don't remember what I paid. It was the only service I let them do. It was the only time I had to add oil between oil changes, because they shorted me 1/2 quart.

 

$238 for mine, that is a bit high what you paid.

 

I paid 235.00 And that included the HD syn oil.
