I am ready for my first service and am trying to figure out where to go for my service. I will likely go back to I-90 as that is where I bought it and have been getting service on my R6. No complaints with them, but they are farther away from me now. I live in South Kitsap now. Thought about going down to Cyclemart in Olympia, but I just read they have a green mechanic down there now.
Anyone no of quality mechanics closer to me?

thanks

My 1st service consisted of an oil and filter change and cheking bolt torque all over the bike... the manual calls for nothing more. Save yerself the wad of cash and do it yourself!

If you wanna spend some money to have your work done and maybe wait on decent scheduling, you could try the Lynnwood Cycle Barn. I bought mine from them, but service it myself in the garage.

Good point. I hadn't checked the manual yet. I can handle that.
Thanks.
Got a wet weekend coming up anyway.

Sorry about that. I misread it. The parts guy left, but it appears Toby is still there.
I'll have to check with them if/when I need more intensive work done.

Thanks
