Well, the 250 and 650 shouldn't have been two bad but if it was the first service on the xtx and if they did everything they were suppose to do it could get pricy.

There's no reason why you shouldn't be able to do your own routine maintenance. I will say the oil is the lifes blood of the motor but it's also got to breath. I have seen 5 motors destroyed this year do to piss poor maintenance. Pay close atension to your air filter, if it clogs it can bypass the filter and the motor starts eating dirt. damage to the motor do to lack of maintenance is not cover by warranty.

      Oil filter cover leak and oil draining 2021 TRX520
      By nblain
      Sorry, bit of newbie question on Honda TRX520
      Can anyone tell me if it is necessary to drain the engine oil to just remove the oil filter cover?
      I recently carried out an oil change and when checking afterwards, found oil leaking from around the oil filter cover (was torqued to 10Nm). I am going to get new O rings to be on the safe side, but was wondering how high the oil level in the engine sits relative to the pump filter and do I have to drain the oil?
      TIA

      What kind of oil do you use in your Honda?
      By p5200
      I've been using Valvolene 10w 40 ATV oil but, it's like $8.00 a quart. Is that about the going rate? Or is there cheaper alternatives that would be suitable? Thanks
