I feel the same way, I have a 3 year old M1200. As long as you are happy with the service light on permanently, as the dealers don’t want to cancel it without the service attached.
I supplied my spark plugs. I was warned that they would cost £26 each, so I went on ebay and bought all four for £43. The dealer didn't mind as he would have supplied them at cost price.
