hey,

 first time harley owner, i have no idea what sort of money the dealers should be charging for my 4000km service. gassoline ally said it would be around 200-300 dollers i think it was. is that a lot for a fluid change. he wanted to sting me with a "service" that included 3 hours shop time and my fluids so they could check the bike over and adjust my clutch and what not for like 400-500. i told him thanks but no thanks because even i know that is way over priced and that sort of stuff should be included in your normal service right?

 

any info you guys have as to where is a good well priced shop in brisbane on the southside would be so much help.

 

cheers and thank you!

 

 

Around the $360.00 mark here in the West Greasy.

I paid 200 for primary, engine, gearbox oil and plugs in Brisbane was a special on at heavy duty motorcycles.
Weather it was all done is debatable.

Yes i have had bad experiences in the past from sneaky mechanics charging for shit they don't do. this is why i don't trust them. So i marked some bolts before the bike went in for its service. i no they changed the engine oil it was clean also the oil filter and plugs were changed.
Why i doubt they done it all is because i marked two bolts on the primary cover and when i got the bike back those bolts were still in the same place.
I could of said something 2 them but i never il just act dumb they won't see me there again.

 yeah the thundermax is magic, probably the best money spent so far.

the straight shots are just the slip ons not the full system. but i like the sound they make.

by the way gasoline ally has a ride day this sunday am thinking about going and meeting some new ppl the weather is predicted to be perfect you should come along.http://www.gasolinealleyharleydavidson.com.au/
