I had my 12K done on a trip back to the UK in September at Rob Speed in Cleethorpes.
Very pleased with the service (Loaned me a Z1000TX for the day)
It cost just over £150, a lot cheaper than Woking Yamaha!
Im having no problems with it and it needed nothing.
The only comment was that the head-bolts looked a wee bit 'fusty' but would clean up.
I did ask for a valuation (rude not to) but at that mileage it doesn't have an entry in Glasses Guide yet :-(
Currently on 13500

Just had my 6000miles service done. No problems at all and no rust, and she gets used every day. The disc bolts start to look a bit fluffy if she isn't clean often but generally very very pleased.

Cheers daps

Just under 4K the only rust i have (and it's a tiny amount) is on the rear shock but we all know that thing is fit for the bin so hopefully it'll be gone early next year...other than that she's mint! :)

2.5K. Away for the winter now but only got it in May so still looks as god as when I got it. Will give it a good clean and polish soon as I get chance.

Got mine in July with 1500 on clock, it has now done 5300 and all is good, mind you it should be - I clean it as much as I ride it. ;)

Got mine with 700 miles on it hit 2700 today, been sitting for about 4 weeks with some filth on it as I didn't have time to clean it off, gave it a snow foam to start off then hand washed with a soft mitten rinsed off then dried as best I could with a micro fiber drying towel.

Still looks good, I use a hand applied wax call victoria wax you rub it in and then buff off and it brings out the flake in the orange really well I buy all my wash kit off this lot, Car Care Products | Detailing Products | UK - Clean Your Car good quality stuff
