I don't think so. I would lift the forks up all the way to reduce the amount of oil in the tank. Then take the flanged piece off the top of the tank where the big suction hose connects to get at the filter. If the oil doesn't look horrible then I wouldn't worry about changing it. $119 ?? Something ain't right there.
