Easy. The common maintenance stuff is a breeze. Every 30k you do air filter, pollen filter, fuel filter (on the early ones), spark plugs, serpentine belt, brake bleed. Transaxle fluid is 90k (I think). The only hassle is removing the mufflers to get easier access to the plugs, but that's maybe 20 minutes if the nuts are stubborn. Even pausing to drink a few beers you can do an entire tune-up in under three hours easily.

There are some pretty good Pelican tech articles available on the home page.
