sounds good. I'll do it here, but I just changed my oil, so I'm good. Kurt offered to help me changed the plugs on my bike so maybe he'll help me do that to keep me busy

We do this all the time... well at least I do! We usually get together with friends and do our oil changes and have a bbq. I'm planning to have one soon, cause I got about 1k to go before I change mine!

which means... I had to buy that 80 or 100$ oil change every 2500miles..
My oil changes are FREE and they use the Honda Oil. I have never had a problem. I do get the FREE tires too, and I call ahead to see what kind they have around the time I need them, and they put them aside for me. I get the Michilan Pilot Powers. I was told in the beginning that those would be best for me, and I really like them. Good luck.
