With the season about to begin, where can I take my 2000 Kawasaki 800
Drifter for an oil/filter change (I have the oil I want in there) fluids
check (ie. oil, coolant, brakes, forks)? Change the plugs (I have 'em)
and check the chain for adjustment.

I was quoted $240 and a 2-day wait. Anybody know where I can take my
bike (Philadelphia) and have it done while I wait? $240 sounds steep,
or am I outta touch?

I spoke with Yamaha City (right off Deleware Ave) and they said they
could do a full inspection/oil change pretty much over my lunch brake
(or at least same day). I don't know what they charge. I'm pretty sure
they work on other bikes besides Yamaha's. I'd call them and post my
findings, but they are closed on Mon. Here's their info:
