I have about 700 miles on my first HD, an 07 ultra. I thought the wty would be shot if I didnt take it to the dealer for the 1000 mile check. Whats the poop?

 

Just had the dealer do my first service. It was free and I wanted a record of it being done. I'll do the service from here on out. The tech advised he found several loose spokes on the rear wheel. If you are doing your own first service, and you have lace wheels, it's important that all the spokes get checked and tightened if needed.

 

I did mine, nothing to it. Get a manual and go for it.

I have done my own in the past, 1000 mile included and only go to the dealer for warranty issues.
I have taken my UC to a local Chopper Shop as I really like the Owner and Mech there and the prices are very reasonable.
I have seen the product these guys turn out and it is "Top Shelf"
