12k Service

[Grumpy Goat]

Oil and filter, spark plugs, air filter, valve check, oil in rear drive, brake flush, and a walk around. And they washed the bike.

Thanks.

I now have the warning for my next service in 600 miles, and with the long weekend coming I will be doing this 48,000 mile service myself. It is required to cover: Replace oil and filter, spark plugs, air filter, oil in rear drive, and valve check. A brake flush is also recommended.

I will inspect and clean the plugs but not replace them as they are newer. Since the plugs and oil will be out I will check the valve clearances too. I had decided that with every rear drive oil change I will inspect the drive shaft splines and universal joints. This will be the first time doing that. May wash the bike after although it is presently clean enough.

I will most likely leave the brake fluid flush for another occasion in the near future.
