When it comes to working on your bike, what things do you feel comfortable doing by yourself? What do you always take it to a garage for? I know DIY is cheaper but sometimes hiring out is the better option.

Honestly, I feel better working on my car or truck than I do a bike. I am still in the process of learning the ins and outs so for me it goes to the pro's before I worry about trying to fix something and end up breaking it instead.
