[QUOTE="burnergold2B, post: 293048, member: 3777"] Nope, nope, and nope. Bingo!! Consider the BMW is recommended to be adjusted every 6K miles, and a major service at 12K miles, with the service cost of a BMW shop being $200-$800 depending on which shop? While the K has gone for it's 4th service the FJR hasn't had to have a valve CHECK yet until 26K miles which I can easily do myself. Just oil changes which any goober can do himself, eh. I would venture to say the maintenance costs are somewher in the 5-10X category, as of lately, since the advent of the oilheads. Then there's travel time, drop it off, time w/o your bike, and go pick it up; the new BMW way. You're trying to say just $3k for 100k miles for maintenance on a KGT? Where's your dealership? [/QUOTE]
