One thing to mention is that when something goes wrong over time, you might not even be aware of it... My clutch lifter machanism fell apar very ver slowly, so the clutch got heavier over the course of months- I had no idea it was doing it until by chance I rode another bike, and realised how heavy mine was. And I'm pretty good at that sort of thing, usually...

Getting a second opinion is one of the advantages of dealer servicing- you might think something's perfectly fine when in fact it's potentially a problem.
