Hello from Massachusetts

mbberrien · 08-01-2013, 01:43 PM

Bought my bike in May this year and completed the riders safety course, now I am licensed and loving life. I love riding and though can't get hubby or daughter to ride on back of bike, I will keep trying. First oil change was done today, it is relatively easy, however, no one carries the right oil filter for my bike has to be ordered. Good thing there was one under the seat for me to use!! Next, the brakes, yikes!

Have fun and ride on!!

Welcome home, Mary Beth.

Be careful, there aren't too many ladies on this forum. So we all scramble to say hello first in hopes of gaining their attention..... wait.....

In the future, know that these oil filters can get bought in small bulk quantities at many online places for very cheap. It's good to just have them laying around and not worry about having to order them again for several thousand miles.

Ride on.

Look for a Hi Flo HF136 oil filter. It is identical to the Suzuki oil filter and not as expensive.
