Thanks for the replies! Oil change started this. Tried 2-3 oil filter wrenches before compromising the side of the "old" oil filter trying to get it off, figured at that point I ought to pay someone. Took it to the dealer who charged $130 then came up with steering bearing thing so got that...
How much "should" an oil change in a major city? Replacing Sterring head bearings? Replacing battery? I fully realize that's quite subjective, just trying to become educated!
2004 FZ6 with about 7.5k on it. Having a horrible expereince with a major dealer in town...thank you for your...
