The first time it takes a little while since you have to purchase the oil, filter and (sometimes) a crush washer. Then you have to get your drain pan, oil filter wrench, box end wrench and (sometimes a jack) together. Then you have to plan your disposal of old oil and filter. The procedure itself takes much less time than the prep. Also, once you have done it, the next time will be much faster.
But you will learn a little more about your bike, you'll save some money, you'll have more satisfaction, and you won't have the time spent involved with drop-off and pick-up of the bike at the dealer.
