    how much are you paying for 600 mile service?

    i was told , as of january 1 st yamaha would not pay for the labour of the first service. most other dealers have already stopped the 'free' first service, yamaha were the last one still doing it. i've been told my first service will be £130 ( booked for 16 th may ) luckily i got a service plan...

    good bye mt 09 , hello tracer

    no akro with tracers, only with mt 09..... i did try, i was also told , you have to remove the centre stand , to fit after market exhausts ??? px value was £ 5700 , but swapping the finance figures about, im £12 a month better off !
