Looking for someone who knows what they are doing and able to take care of two things on my bike this week. I would love to do it myself but I don’t have the knowledge or room at my apartment to do it myself.

I can bring both fluids and an oil filter, I just need someone with some time, motivation, and skill who can take care of it after 5pm one night this week.

2008 Yamaha R6S

Might want to list the bike. Some require an assortment of fairings to be removed in order to access things.

Boxa its a lot easier then you might thing. As for space all you need is a few feet around the bike and you can do it yourself. You will also need an oil pan for the waste oil. As for the brake bleeding its just like a car. You can even get one of those “one man” kits from autozone and bleed it your self. Same rules for bleeding brakes on cars apply to a bike(really only on the front). Start from the calipper thats farthest from the master cylinder.

If you can wait until next week when I’m back in town I’ll help you do it. I’ll show you how, I’ve got a garage and all the tools. I’d charge a 6 pack of some decent beers for it.
