I too have never took the bikes in for their regular service. I do it myself if I can....Oh and mywifesquad, are you a chick or a dude? No offense, but i'm guessing chick. and how did you come up with your name?
Well I bought my wife a Yamoto 150 and typed it into a google search to see what would come up and found this forum with "dirtforashirt's' review of a yamoto 150. I am strictly a dirtbike guy so I thought I would put a twist on my nickname.If not for "my wifes quad " I never would have found this forum. And no offense taken.I can understand the confusion. I used the brunette head because, well my wife is a brunette.Just for a little background on me. I am 44 and have been married for 25 year's this last summer. Have two boy's 17 @ 18 and I have been riding since I was 11. The wife used to ride the XR200 but is now afraid of falling.Which led to the quad purchase.Now I pretty much ride enduros and wood's ride most of the time although I do put on paddles and take the family to Pismo once a year in July for a 5-6 day camping trip.Hope this end's the confusion.

ive always done everything on my quads myself...i just got my peaks a couple days ago and the dealer was all like dont forget at 10-20 bring it in for its "break in" servicing...and we'll even give you a coupon so its only 130 dollars plus oil etc....they told me i had to go there for it or it could void my warranty...so i used the dealers phone to call suzuki and found out no it wont void the warranty just save my receipts for the purchases i make for oil etc..to prove i have properly maintained it myself...so i laughed in the sales guys face and then oreded my own damn oil...lol....i mean if you cant do it yourself you are better off going to a small shop or asking around...luckily i was a mechanic and am very mechanically inclined...so from motors to bearings to everything its all easy....stay away from the stealership...

p.s. i was able to get the twin peaks i just bought for 50 bucks above invoice....
