600 Mile service

[minky]

Whats involved in the first service? Worth getting it done or do it myself?

I've gone over time so it won't be free and I have no intention of paying for dealer servicing in future LOL

Do it yourself if you ain't getting dealers to do any servicing... Its only an oil & filter, plus a good look around the bike & tighten any nuts & bolts etc - Thant being said, its is a very important service after running it, to remove any debris that may be floating around in the oil :!:

Thought they checked valve clearances etc but if they don't will just do it myself :)

What oil do you guys recommend?

Hein Gericke 'Motul' Semi-Synthetic 10W 40 (oil & filter deal) for £24.50 - 5 litres of Oil, oil filter & Air filter (although they don't stock the filter for the pointies (K3, K4 or K5's etc :?)) I pushed the boat out & bought a K&N oil filter (£10) & a K&N Air Filter (£35 - This is cheap because the K&N filter is re-usable - Buy it once & use it forever ;)) Still cheaper than a dealer service :!:
