2 hours/ $200 for spring install???

[Project Hex]

Just checking if this sounds right. I was quoted $130 for ohlins 10.5 spring set but 2 hours / $200 for my dealer to install them. I thought I read on this forum the spring install takes like 5 minutes?
Thanks for all your help! This forum is great.

Are you upgrading the springs of your stock suspension or aftermarket Ohlins? The procedure can vary depending upon your suspension.

Sorry I should have specified that. Right now everything is stock. Thanks!

I spoke to my dealer few days back about getting the same thing done...swapping out the stock springs with Racetech.
Their answer was 1.5-2hrs, so I am assuming it is the same for you. Although I believe if you can get the service manual, you might be able to do it yourself. You might have to top up the fork oil though.

Thank you, Im going ahead with it then. Installing Friday with my first service! Thanks

I suspect these charges are reasonable. It's not a five-minute job by any stretch.
