MOTORCYCLE SERVICING
Safety is vital when it comes to motorcycling. A service will ensure that any loose seals or bolts or splitting O-rings are spotted. A service will keep everything ship-shape and generally extend the life of your motorcycle.
HOW MUCH DOES A MOTORCYCLE SERVICE COST?
In the UK it will cost an average of around £125 for a basic motorcycle service but can cost up to £750 for a fully comprehensive service on a rare or unusual bike.
HOW OFTEN SHOULD A MOTORCYCLE BE SERVICED?
The owner’s manual will have the manufacturer’s recommendation but generally most motorcycles should be serviced annually or every 4000-6000 miles, whichever comes first.
