6K service

[dipshit]

Can someone tell me why suzukis need a 6k service? Seems a waste of money, or are they likely to rattle to bits and therefor need every bolt tightened continuously to stay on.

The first two services (1k and 6k) are compulsory if you want to keep your warranty valid.

(Says someone who has an aprilia)

Did you buy your aprilia brand-new?

Well, I think any new machine should be checked early in its life - whether it is a bike or a sewing machine or anything else....just to cover "bedding in" and anything that wasn't quite perfect at assembly....mighta been a "Friday" job.....so far mine seems to be a "good" day job.....fingers crossed......

The real reason for it is to keep the warranty valid from my POV and to rake in more money from the manufacturers POV.....
