yesh, though to be fair i do everything myself and have done for a long while whenit comes to bikes, especially on my bmw. but if i ever get badly stuck i do know my mate is a bmw motorrad tech so i drag him round!!LOL

i know not everyone is as lucky, but i do think at last follow the genuine service schedule and using genuine parts does make a difference, though not necessarily using a genuine dealer... rather go to some trusted/reccommeded by word of mouth by friends etc...

that said the company car goes to the dealer... hell its not mine anyway, im not paying and if it brakes then work stump a hire car. and if it dies before the 3years are up then i get a new car anyway. kinda win-win really on that one!
