Hi all,
I’m a very happy owner of a 3 year old 800 GSA, bought a fortnight ago. Bike has only had RIS and one more service in late 2016 @ 4500. It is now on 10600 and well overdue a service. I was gonig to get a 12k service done now at same time as MOT at my local independent who used to be a min dealer and all the techs are trained by BMW.
Question is , is it worth me getting valve clearances done now, or should I really wait until it clicks over 12k, which might not be for 3-4 months yet?
Main dealer wants about £550 for service and valves, the indie about half of that.
Thoughts/experiences please?
Cheers, marty
