I dunno, look at the manual for your bike and see what the 4k service is! On GSXR it could be loads of work, but AFAIK it's nothing special.

the service is for a 2006 sv.

dat why it in sv talk section

Thats exactly what I paid for my 4k on the SV. Granted alot will say just change the oil yourself but if your not 100% with checking the bike then there no harm done taking it in somewhere in my eyes.

If the dealer does just give it an oil change its obviously a rip off. I took mine to a garage I had been recommended, they checked everything and spotted the 'headraces?' needed tightening up and a host of other things were adjusted......the bike came back feeling amazing.

Ah right OK didn't see "cuzs bike" in the OP! Yeah £155 is taking the pi$$.

i'm not 100% sure but i dont think they even change the filters.

The oil change only is done in the interim service, around 600 miles, they also walk around and check everything is still attached/tightened properly.

A dealer trained mechanics first service is usually;

- Air filter check and clean
- Spark Plugs
- Oil change
- Coolant check
- Throttle cable check
- Clutch cable check
- Chain check
- Brake system check
- lubricate relevant parts/components
- Tyre and wheel check
- All nuts tightened correctly

he just wants his book stamping i think? bl@@dy expencive stamp lol, i could just sign it KWAK ZZR!
