Re: 4000mile service
Interesting discussion about rubber stamps... My OE service books are all empty.
I have always done my own servicing on bikes, cars, trucks and machinery, including during the warranty period. I keep very comprehensive log books detailing exactly what has been done with all of the whens, hows, whys, blah blah blah... which go way beyond just servicing.
Presenting a well maintained bike (or other) for warranty (or resale) with comprehensive documentation has never been an issue. It would be different if it was a bodged and/or neglected POS.
I wouldn't recommend this course to everyone though. The documentation must be accompanied by a high standard of workmanship.
Rubber stamp... pfff!
Cheers
