Nah, even the manual says they only need to change the oil and give it the once over. It's possible that they might spot something during the check, but it's really just about getting the stamp in the book.

I've got my 4k service at the end of the month too... as soon as the 2 years warranty is up I'll be doing my own servicing! Technically the manual (at least for the k4) says that you can change the oil, etc. yourself and just take the bike in for the check over, which most places would be hard pushed to charge much for, but I figure most dealers would get the hump if I did that... I'll see how it goes, how fast they do it, how much it costs and then if it seems unreasonable I'd look into doing more of it myself.

Anyone tried getting their Suzi dealer to only do the minimum stuff - checks, etc. for the stamp, and already sorted the oil, plugs, etc. before taking it in? If so did they seem alright about it or did they get the hump?
