Re: Cost of oil change

$25? For 2 quarts of oil and a $3 filter? What kind of stuff are you guys using?!?

I've heard of $100 oil changes from our Canadian members, but what kind of ludicrous lie are these shops selling people that makes them think an oil change has a value of $100.... even on a car? I mean, even at $30, they are making a killing. It's a 10 minute process in a shop... It might cost $10 in parts and then $20 in labor if they are assholes... That's still only $30.

Go to Walmart and buy yourself some oil and do it yourself. You don't have to change the oil filter every time. (I would do that if your bike is brand new, but not once she's broken in.) And you can buy oil filters in bulk from Amazon for almost nothing.

Geeze. I feel for ya, man.
