Default First service already

My 2 week old FXD is going in for first service tommorow morning. hit 890 miles, 35 miles to dealer the short way, so will get close the 1000 miles. , 61% of the miles are paid work miles.

I love my job, most of the time [8D]

My dealer does the 1000 mile service for free.

Only issue i got is clutch not releasing completely. They said will be adjusted.

It seems like you had it longer than that, I see you post all the time maybe that's why I'm thinking you had it longer than that.
Get it back and ride the hell out of it before it turns cold up there.

The clutch is very easy to adjust. I had the same issue and it just needed to be tightened. It is that rubber cover on the clutch cable up against the left upper angle on the frame. That is a good amount of miles! WOW

I hear you, let them do what they can do for free, I barely went over 200 miles yesterday, going to try and put another 100 today.
