How hard is it to perform? Must you take it to the dealer due to the complexity of it? The dealer wants 250.00 |

So, I take it that it is easier to pay rather than play around with this? |

if you have the means I think I would do it myself, the only part that would really scare me is changing the fork oil cause I have never had forks apart before but other then that if you follow the service manual it cant be that bad. but what is your time worth to you. it still might be cheaper for you to take it to them and have it back in a day then you maybe taking a weekend. |

Get a Factory Motors Manual and a Parts Book for your year and model and learn to be a "MECHANIC" !!! YOU CAN DO IT !!! There are BUELLers on BWB that will help you ... "i" will be glad to tell you what to do to make your bike more safe and last longer ... |

Debueller- thanx for the laugh but I was walking kinda funny when I left, made for a hard ride home if you know what I mean, and you know what the kicker was? they didn't even kiss me on the cheek when they were done. lol |

No kiss? Then I'm assuming you did not even get the courtesy of a reach around. |

Yeah 10k is easy stuff, only "hard" part would be the forks, if it does comedown to it you can just pull them and have them done at a shop. |

If your bike is still under warrranty I would take it to the stealership. By doing this they cant say a problem if and when it occurs is beause you did the maintenance. If its not under warranty, get the manual and do it yourself, save money and learn your bike. Good luck |

250$ is a helluva deal. 450$ is the cheapest I've found n I was quoted all the way up to 950$ within 300 miles from me. |
