Service for the bike

[Scott221]

Looking to get the bike properly service by Cradley, just been quoted in the region of 300 quid. Is it worth it and do you lot have services?

Discuss..

I take it thats including the top end service too?

Ive had services done on both my ZXRs including the top end and they were in the region of 400 quid. They did pretty much everything too. Nowadays i just do everything myself now that im more knowledgable and let the shop do the top end or anything that im not comfortable with.

So would you reccomend getting it done? There is always the added + of if/when i come to sell up, ill have something to show that its been looked after.

I think the headstock bearing might need checking, ive bled my brakes countless times and theyre still toad, want them to have a look at the top for me aswell. Ill ring back later and ask what it includes.

Well thats the toss up i think, thing is what you spend in servicing you wont get back when you come to sell it. If you have reciepts for stuff you have done yourself its not quite as good as a dealers stamp to some people, but it shows money have been put into keeping it maintained.

Just got back to them, 350 for a full service so:

carbs
forks
suspension
valves etc etc

Think its well worth it.
