Yeh I missed my 90,000km whilst doing snow trips, and now at 980000 so booked it in for the 100k service before driving to P for the shred

Ouch 100k is a major service yeah?

But smart thinking!

Whats the 10k service going to run you?  I hit the 60k service (major) not too long ago with the t-bird, they wanted $1100 so i broke it up into 2 seperate services and did some of the little stuff myself

I haven’t checked. though I haven’t had anything checked in 9 months and I’m not exactly a mechanic myself so I will probably just nut up and pay them to do the lot :(

If its going to be expensive you could do little things like changing the oil yourself? Mine turned out to be really easy- worst bit was

the shop sold me an external filter when I needed an internal filter (i found this out with the bike in pieces, 10 minutes before they closed, the Ute out for the afternoon, and they were closed the rest of the weekend teacherboy )

I imagine you could find a youtube how-to video as your bike is a lot more popular than mine.
