Hit the 40k mark. . .
Posted: Sun Jul 29, 2012 11:53 am
Hi Guys,
I've just gone beyond the 40,000 miles point on my R12S and (fingers crossed) it's has been brilliant so far with only a failed battery and O2 sensor issue. Not bad.
However I can't look past the fact that for a bike that's a fair amount of miles. So I'm looking at what may need done to ensure it does another 40k without issues.
I have had the usual services and have a big service booked for next month however I was wondering if there was anything else I need to have checked to ensure it remains in good condition. Bearings, engine, gearbox etc. . .
Also I need to find a good Ohlins service agent in Scotland, anybody from Scotland know a good specialist up here and also any ideas on an approximate cost for a refurb?
Advice gratefully received!
Cheers
Al
