Default First Service completed

$300!!

That must be some kind of really special oil they put in there!

Oh, and they replaced the swing arm spool that fell off, presumably at no charge.

It is special oil if you brought it to a KTM dealer. They recommend the Motorex power synt 4t for the RC8 so my guess is that's what you got. It's around $15/qt online so use your imagination as to what the dealership charges.

Yes, I took it to the dealer, only because it was the first service. From this point forward, I will be doing the oil changes myself, as I do with my other 2-wheel toys.
