I'm due for my 60,000 mile service. How much will the dealer charge me ? Will they really check everything they are suppose to ? I saw other posts that said the mechanics don't know how to work on Evo's. I don't want someone inexperienced on Evo's working on my bike. How can I be sure I'm getting what I pay for ? I can't decide what to do.

 

I don't think a 60,000 mile service should be any different than a 10,000 mile service. I have never had a dealer do a 10,000 mile service. I think the going rate is $250-$300 but not positive.

Why don't you want to do it yourself?

 

This price depends on where you live,what model of bike and if you have a dealer or indy service the bike.

 

chesapeake harley in darlington, md charged me 350.00 for 45, 000 service. i am sure each dealership probaly has their own prices, i would call them and ask what they charge.

 

I just got a 60k service quote for my 04 Ultra from my HD shop here in north Texas and it's $590.00. If you plan to do the service take it to a shop you trust. Many of us have had bad experiences with a shop in this area so do your research.

 

Took my bike in to the dealer recently and said I need a 10K service. Doing the walkaround, the service tech says I need a 30K service. I asked how much, and the answer was $699 - instead of $379 for the 10K. Then I asked what the difference was, and nobody knew. Got the service schedules out and couldn't figure it out. Finally said fork oil. And I said I'm not changing the fork oil until I chrome the forks, and momma hasn't said I can spend that money yet - so - NO. So I got a 10K and I'm happy.

Service manager was good about it, though. He said he wouldn't do it either. And he changed my replaced my stock compensator with a SE compensator. Nice.

 

Why not call a few dealers near you and ask them how much? Then call a few indy's and ask them. Or better yet, do it yourself.

I experienced the same thing. Called around for pricing on the 10k service, one dealer said it'd be $750. When I asked why, he said, "It's very labor intensive, they change the fork oil." I went to another dealer and got it done for $325. By the time the 20k service rolls around, I think I'll have a lift and manual.

 

I was told that HD changed the recommended miles on fork oil changes from 30K to 60K. So the 30K should be the same as any 10K service (around $350). I think this same HD dealer wants about $600 for the 60K service.

 

The service manual is cheap, and you can reuse it at each service interval and repair.
