I used to spend a fortune at my dealer. Now I just say to myself....why do I need this?
Nothing left to do to my bike other than get it painted and that will wait for the winter. I have learned to stay away from dealers.

Just don't get that new 20-50 synthetic air. I have heard bad things like your fork sliders will be to slick and go clear to the bottom if you use the front brake. Better to use regular old HD 360 air so you don't have that problem.
