12k service



Had my 12k service done, even through the bike only has 11K on it. I 
figured since it was in for the leaking fuel line fitting and I'm not 
doing much riding that I'd just get all of the servicing done before 
the weather gets good again, and I have to wait weeks for an 
appointment.

Anyway yesterday I stopped by the shop to see how they where coming ( 
had been waiting for parts) when I spoke with the service manager and 
the tech they told me that the valves needed NO adjustment.. that 
they where all in spec ( was also told and shown, bike was up on the 
lift with the motor still open, NO wear at all on the cams and a 
super clean motor.. guess the Motul oil IS good stuff) I would have 
thought that in 11,000 miles of pretty hard riding they'd need 
adjustment. Has anyone else Not needed valves adjusted at the 12K 
service??  I can't imagine that if I'd waited for another 1,000 miles 
it would make any difference.
