just found the bike over due for a service, however since I'm not going
back to MotoGB I'm not sure who to go to, It seems my choice is Strada or Honda as
I want to stay around the mount area for ease.
So does it matter who? your comments are appreciated

Yes it does matter! Take it to Ray at the BMW shop at the mount. They do all brands of bike and aren't a rip off.

but still, gp honda over strada.
