Default overdue service

my bike goes in for a service next week (4500 mile service), im actually nearly 375 miles over that and I have noticed the bike isnt as lively as usual! You twist the throttle hard, it does nothing for 1/2 a second then off it goes! Hope I havent broken anything!

Going to stop riding it until its service I think.

Heh, mine's somewhat overdue as well.. oddly, the bike cuts out on me occasionally.. Did it this morning on a roundabout so I had to coast all the way 'round it while trying to get him to restart...

MUST sort it this weekend... tempting Fate with no breakdown cover...

I imagine something like that is to do with the idle timing, which will be adjusted during the service.

Sort it our people!

It's every 4000 miles (or 6 months,) isn't it Some do it at 3000, just to be on the safe side
