Hey thanks for all the advice! Rosso are obviously very trustworthy - the previous owner had the 695 done there too. However have to say 400 quid sounds a bit steep for general service with no belts or valves involved... Trouble is I think the 695 is due for valves so it's going to be big bill...ouch.

It had everything done including the belts bizarrely enough, at 6764 miles at Rosso Corse due to the previous owner insisting on it (!). That was in 08. Then fluids filters and belts replaced last year at Red Dog but they didn't record the mileage, and stupidly we didn't either but I think it was about 12K. However they reckoned the valve clearances were OK. Now it's at 15477 and the "NA int" message is showing. However it just went to Assen and back and ran like a dream. Is it noticeable if the valves need doing or do you just have to do them?
