asked williams for a service qoute, and for the amount of work to be done on the bike for a 6000 mile sevice it sounds resonable(brake fluids,gearbox oil,tappets and the other usual stuff) i just thought that it was a bit early to do the brake fluids(no mention of the clutch fluid)or am i behind the times when it comes to servicing.

They might even pump up your tyres and check the oil for you as well

There's a new bit of software at BMW dealerships that calculates what's needed at each service. depends if it' an annual or just a regular 6000m.

Just quoted around £220 including valve clearances and brake fluid.

1200GS 6K service

Just had mine done at Cannons, Braintree and was charged £138.00.
Had new mirrors fitted under warranty as well as glasses were loose.

I believe it's standard practice to change the brake fluid at the 6K service regardless of time. This is possibly to remove any moisture content that may have been present from assembly or storage.

The clutch hydraulics don't use brake fluid and are effectively "filled for life".
