I really just want to know why getting your bike serviced at a yamaha dealer is so expensive? What do they do that is so friggin expensive. Would be possible for anyone to do?

thanks for all the help. and well I live near el paso, tx and all the yamaha dealer around here have quoted me 300 for the first service. I basically just want to know what they do so that maybe I could learn to do them myself.
Ouch. You first service should just be an oil change. They will claim to go over the whole bike and check everything, but all they are going to do is change the oil. Save yourself a bundle and do it yourself.
Well, I can see that not many people on this forum have actually ever owned a business so I'll try to clue you in. First, the dealer has to pay his employees, then he has to cover their worker's comp. insurance, his portion of their payroll taxes, his own corporate taxes and insurance to keep the roof over his head and liability insurance, then he has to pay for his rent or cost of owning a building. Then he has his phone, light and heating bills like everyone else. Finally he has to finance his product. If he's lucky and good at what he does, he just might pull a profit. And some people have the audacity to call them stealers. Finally they have to have the restraint to deal with people who bitch about everything. I suggest that anyone who "thinks" they can do it better give it a try. My bet is they'll never get off the ground.
