Hello fellow GS owners.
Could some one point me in the right direction were I can find what needs doing at what mileage.
I.e. Plugs replacement rear diff oil change. Is the brake fluid a pain to change.
Thank you one and all . And have a good weekend.

Have a bump I’m interested too—
I’ve just bought a r1200gs anniversary and I’m unsure whether I need to run out and buy a gs911 and any other tackle.

When I bought my r1150gs I downloaded the oil heads maintenance manual bought a Haynes manual and made a manometer for throttle body tuning - job done

Any simalar info on the twin cam would be useful .

Thanks

I had seen that and you can’t get anymore concise but I think I’ve been spoilt by the oil head version

If I’d bought a bike and wasn’t sure of its service history, I’d be tempted to do it all. On a LC, the service manual states to change the final drive every 12k. I changed mine at 11k and it was so dirty and smelly I decided to do it every time I changed the engine oil ie every 6k

As i do all my own servicing and most repairs i have one of these and it's great. Gives me much of what i need (and what you ask for) to work on the bike. You see them going in the for sale section for a tenner or so posted now and then

Change everything every two weeks just to be on the safe side.

Just two weeks.

Depends on the year of your bike... and you haven't said.

 

[Bmw Robert]

It's a 2011. I have purchased a manual. I've done the pads all round. So far.

Rear diff oil should also include greasing the Paralever bearings and drive splines.
