So I go to the stealership tonight to drop my bike off for what was to be my 600 mile break in service tomorrow. However, upon arriving I get...tomorrow...no I don't see you here. So they look and see that I'm on next Wed. Hmm... I pull out my blackberry look at the meeting reminder that appeared as I was driving down. Think man when I got off the phone making the appointment I sent the g/f a message saying she'd have to come pick me up...which she had done dragging our little guy out...so i explain that either the guy taking my appointment told me the wrong week or he wrote it in the wrong spot. Nothing I can do for you is what I get...U sure I said? I mean your not the only dealership who can do this you know. Well...he says as I'm walking away then a do you want to keep your appointment? No thanks I reply and walk away back out to the show floor where I am hapily greeted by my salesman who sold me the bike. This guy was awesome and did well for me. I wondered if that was you out there he says what ya here for. Well, I thought I was here to get my break in service but...(told him the story) so its to bad your service department isn't as good as your sales department. As we walk over to parts and I pick up my oil and ask for the filter. He says, oh you gonna do it yourself. Yup I reply I'll do all I can. When ya gonna do it I'll come help but it can't be tonight as my son ...(just the kinda guy he is to offer). I am going to attempt it tonight I said. We talked for a while and I then took off.
As Ron White would say now I told you that story to tell you this one.
Knowing I had the powerpoint on how to remove the right side i was confident the oil change would be easy. I'd then call another dealership and schedule the break in service minus oil change. So i started taking off the right side...got frustrated but kept calm worked slow and eventually got it off with out issue. Once you get it off its a light bulb going off and i'm sure i'll never have a problem with it again. So now to ... oh boy. Take off the oil filter. Yea, no tools for that trick around. Too late to go to a store. So here I am. Can't ride tomorrow as the bike is still torn apart and i'm gonna have to find an oil filter wrench and do this tomorrow night.
