500 miles on the Attak Gt...questions on the first service

[dwhite]

How many hours does this service take?
what are dealerships in states charging for this service $$$$?
should I do the service myself?? Is it a PITA
What is done during the first service??
can I go with the new Yamalube® 0W-40 Full Synthetic Oil at 500 miles??
any advice would be great....

do it yourself its a lot cheaper,its real easy just lots of steps.a dealer will charge $100+ incl oil and filter,just pay attention how you put it back together,also change your gear oil,lube suspension and go.

Thanks for the info...

Do you think it's ok going with the full Synthetic oil after 500 miles???

My dealer charges $208 for the first service not to bad if you ask me, they fixed alot of the recalls on the 08 Nytro I took to them.

I would stick with mineral oil until the next oil change if I were you.

I beleive that you are supposed to check synchronization of the EFI throttle bodies. Not sure how important it is but it requires tools.

I have to bring mine in next week and he is going to charge $200 and go threw the sled for me. I will do my own the next time.

if you do it yourself, do yourself a big favor and buy the ulmer filter relocation kit. it is worth its weight in gold. glad i got one

i heard that relocation kit was obsolete now. Couple guys have been stating that already not sure if it's true though
