4000 mile maintenance

[ndivita]

My 2005 FJR ABS is sitting at 3200 miles. It has had all previous scheduled maintenance performed along with at least two extra engine oil/filter changes and final drive gear oil changes. It is in perfect condition. I am planning an 1800 mile trip in a week or so, after which I would have the regular 4000 mile maintenance performed. The (dumb) question is whether I run any material risk to the bike from a mechanical standpoint by putting 5000 miles on it before I do the 4000 mile regular maintenance. Thank you.

Change the oil and filter. The rest can wait - what there is of it, mostly just checks which you can do yourself.

If you have already changed the oil and filter a couple times it sounds like you are still not going to put over 4k since the previous change. I also understand that the maint. intervals on U.S. bikes vs. European bikes is much different with their bikes going 6-7k between oil changes.
