Hi All

Picked up my new 796 anniversary monster 2 weeks ago. So i thought i had better introduce myself.
I live just outside of Bath in Midsomer Norton. I part exchanged a Speed triple for my new bike, a some what different beast.
I owned a m600 and a m900 back in the 90's with no problems.

Took it for the 600mile service today and was shocked at the cost, i thought i would be paying for the oil and filter plus labour £200!!! just after paying £8750 for the bike.

Is this the norm for the 600 service?. I did check with the service guy and was advised that it was an all over check not just an oil change.
Weather permitting i will visit Calne this Saturday, so may see you there.
Cheers
Martin.
