No offense but you may want to learn to do all that stuff on your own. It will save you tons of money. Shops around here at $65 an hour for labor and they will rape on you time. Everything you are doing is very basic and good things to know especially the valves.

They call them stealerships for a reason. I enjoy working on my 400 plus when I do I no its done right. The guys here can help you out a lot with pretty much anything. Invest in a clymer manual it will tell you how to do everything on your bike its worth the 30.00 if you ask me
