Well i hit my 600 mile mark, and need the bike serviced. Who do you think would be the best for this? Its a gs500f, and it has valves. Im kinda a wrench, but havent worked on bikes before. So would this be something something i can do? or should i just spend the $200 and eat it?
also who should i have do you the work?
Thanks

600 mile service almost NEVER involves adjusting valves. Should be a "check all bolts for proper torque, change fluids and go" kind of service
ummm, don't all internal combustion motors have valves?Originally Posted by t_jolt
Look at your manual and see what all is entailed with the 600 mile service...I wouldn't think it would be that hard, nor do I think it should involve checking valves or cam clearances.

Hydraulic valves don't usually need adjusting, just a full valve job after they're shot.ummm, don't all internal combustion motors have valves?

+1 Check the owners manual for required items, DIY, shouldn't be much.
Though don't most dealers do the post breakin check free?
(Wouldn't know, don't believe in new bikes....I mean I believe they exist....just not for me....nevermind.)
Be assured that a walk through the ocean of most souls would scarcely get your feet wet.
what's this 600 mile service? blah, for the weak it is! just change the oil.
