Default Big Difference In Cost

Went to my dealer to have them look at a problem I was having with my oil pressure gauge, which they fixed under warranty.
They also said I'd be due for a rear brake-pad change shortly, but they didn't have the pads in stock.
I asked what the cost would be if they had the parts and was told about $65.00.
Went over to Two Brothers in Lawrenceville and they changed the pads for $38.00.
If I was mechanically inclined, could have done it myself a lot cheaper, but I barely know
which end of a screwdriver to hold.
Anyway, Two Brothers treated me right and I saved a few bucks.
Guess I lucked out.

Do the prices you quoted include the pads and labor?

Thumbs up

I like to do my own stuff and it helps with costs. I did buy the fix my hog for touring and I'm buying the service manual for ma bike to assist me...basically to make sure it's done right and for safety reasons.

Good score on the brake service though
