Got my 600 mile service done yestereday...

Not sure what they did to the bike, but it seems fantastic when I rode it home, the handling felt superb..I guess they probably put some air in the tyres or something

!!

£22 for new oil and filter...and there was me thinking the first services was free

i was ripped off then, padgetts in batley charged med £35 for oil and filter, seems par for the course for them , i expect thats why they can sell bikes so cheap...

i got ripped off when I got the bike, no full tank of fuel and only 6 months tax , and I paid £4599 for it!

ophic · 13-04-05, 03:19 PM

i didn't get a full tank of fuel either. I did get a year's tax tho.

I got a tank full of fuel and a years tax. Paid £4195, which at that time was the best price I could get for a non-import.
