2600 miles and already blew a fork seal. Lead time is 4 weeks until they can get me in at our local dealer. Is it easy enough to replace on my own if I got a jack and the service manual?
Yes. There are threads on here for servicing a fork. There is also YouTube videos that can walk you through it. If you are not going to perform this service, try another HD dealer or independent shop.
I did it on my 08 FXDF and it wasn't that bad. I used a 4 inch PVC for the bushing and seal driver! The hardest part was measuring the fluid which was pretty easy.

All the dealers in a 100 miles all have the same lead time. Just going to do it myself.

The Low Rider S has upgraded forks but as far as I know, should be the same as any other model as far as servicing goes.
