I know. The point I was making was that in my opinion, they gave a better service to my 1150GS before they became a BMW main dealership than did Riders in Cardiff when Riders had their BMW main dealership. I guess they were only interested in selling bikes rather than maintaining them. I disliked the way that their staff tried to make a virtue of the fact that they were charging £115/hr for labour as opposed to £65/hr at M&P. Nevertheless, you have an excellent opportunity to test a BMW and KTM in the same day. My Preference - the KTM.
I’ve actually just bought a 999S 2006 model which I’m hoping to pick up early next week. Whereabouts in Swansea are you?
I have heard of others doing this as the lion share of the cost is labour but even so they quoted me nearly £1200 to change the belts, do an annual service and replace brake/clutch fluid. Not to carry out a desmo service mind, I took it to another dealer who did the same work for less than half that.
