[QUOTE="Lawrence, post: 821777, member: 17912"] Per my other post, got a puncture/flat on way home tonight, so towed bike to shop I've put 22k miles on bike since 21 months, and its due for some thorough servicing The shop estimated 7.5 hrs, $712.50 in labor plus another 80-90 in parts, misc, waste disposal, etc This will basically be the every 16k service plus a little extra The shop I took the bike to says they are busy, but from the m/c tow truck driver he says most shops are dead right now. While they have the front apart, I'll may have them install the FJR OEM heated grips as well. I'm cheap, but don't really have time or the tools to do all this myself. I know there are mechanics hungry for the work... So - thoughts/feedback on the hours and rate? This is SoCal, so I know other parts of the coutry would be much cheaper. For So Cal is this reasonable / a decent deal? [/QUOTE]
