i'm just about to do my first oil change and was wondering what everyone was spending after buying filter and oil.???

anyone know what the dealer's are charging for the first service ???

thanks
 
Nytro at dealer #1:
$59 labor plus $14 filter and $5 quart for oil.

Phazer at dealer #2:
$50 labor and $30 for filter and oil.
 
I just did my first service myself. 10.50 for a Wix oil filter , 7.99 a quart for the yamalube semi synthetic 0w-30. do yourself a favor and buy some of the plastic rivets, you will probably end up breaking atleast one along the way. Part# for the Wix filter is 51358.
 
I hate the plastic rivets. I had to use a pick to get um out and ended up messing a few up. how did you go about take them off?
 
I did mine on my own and it cost me about $67 Canadian. That included shop supplies (oil pan and filter wrench).

I went with Amsoil Full synthetic. I just could not justify spending more for semi-synthetic oil because it said Yamalube on the bottle.
 
I just changed Mine this morning. I paid 39 bucks for the Yamaha filter and 4 quarts of Yamaha semi synthetic oil. The plastic rivets are very easy to remove and replace. You just have to pop up the center part of the rivet with a small screwdriver and they pull out very easy. Then to put them back you just put them in the hole and push in the center. I think some guys are trying to pry the whole rivet out at the same time. I think changing the oil on the Nytro is very easy even with having to deal with the rivets and removing all the panels.
