That is crazy $100 hr, my dealer wants $85 hr. Either way I can't afford him.

@blueline15
Thanks for clarifying that someone told me that and I didn't know. Thanks for the link my dealer wants $90 for the same manual that repairmanuals.com wants $52 for.

@starpuss
Do you have to be a licensed mechanic like in the auto world. My dealer told me nothing of their mechanics qualification. The Guy who went over my machine with me at the time of purchase seem to know very little of my machine.

No problem!

There's more flexibility in the powersports world as far as mechanic qualifications. Of course, a mechanic can be tested and become a certified mechanic. Only certified Polaris mechanics can technically do warranty work. However any joe blow they hire can work on your machine. Scary huh?

Yep that is scary to the tune of $85-$100 a hour. Glad I bought a 4 year warranty and followed break in guide.

Read your owners manual!
The oil change procedure is described nicely... Along with all the factory recommended maintenance intervals. If you have even a little mechanical ability and the place to do it, then do your own maintenance... It's really not that hard and will most certainly benefit you in the long run, in not only cost savings, but in knowing your machine.
Good luck and have fun
