[QUOTE="cota95, post: 699595, member: 1119"] Bought my 06 from D&H a couple of years ago and rode it home to RI. I stopped in Virginia in a Walmart parking lot-choose one with an auto service center. I bought the oil inside, brought my own filter with me, and the auto service guys loaned me a drain pan and took back the used oil for no charge. Along with having D&H loosen the drain plug, I would also buy the filter wrench from your local dealer or D&H. Fits over the end of the filter and uses a 1/4 inch drive. Also bring a single sheet of aluminum foil to go over the body work under the filter to catch the drain oil dripping from the filter. You can catch the best part of the Blue Ridge Parkway on the way home. If you haven't been down that way before and want a gps file of a nice route home, drop me a PM. Good luck, it should be a nice ride home. [/QUOTE]
