    Hi All, I am really enjoying my fist trip into Cruising and my Yamaha XVS 950 is putting a smile on my face with every mile. I just have a question around the 1st service as mine has just gone through this. The cost was £95 (£35 of which was labour/not too bad) the filter was £11 but a further £34 was on Oil in the amount of 4.5 litres. This seemed a lot on both counts and looking around it seems that the bike only takes 4.0 litres anyway? I can't believe a flush was done and this was certainly not mentioned by the shop. So my questions are does the cost sound reasonable and also with the 4.5L of oil could it be that either it was only 4.0L or that it has been overfilled with 4.5L? I am new to the area where I had my bike serviced and do not know the reputattion of the shop. The Shop is a Registered Yamaha Dealer but I am just nervous as this is not only my first Cruiser but also my first New bike (only had old sports before) Any reassurance would be welcome.
