Hi
It's good to be back! I've finally got back to my 06 S4RS after waaaay too long (pulling it out of the garage almost felt like I had stumbled onto a barn find!)
Anyway, before I do too many km I need to have a major service completed. I know that bevels are really tricky to maintain, then the 4 valve Testa motors, then the 2 valve motors.
Am I over thinking this, or are there shops that are recognised as being more able to check/adjust valves and do the belt check on the Testa 4 valve? Seems like the rest if the service is pretty routine.
Thanks for any opinions or first hand experience of who did the work and ideally what the major service cost.
Cheers
Craig

Bevan at eurotwins is the only real option in my book, he's careful, thorough, and knows what he's doing. he's been an independent mechanic for a long time now but he's factory trained and does a very good job at a fair rate.

I take all my bikes to him, have done for the last 12 years or so and i'm fussy, no complaints from me, i'm very happy.

Thanks loony. That's how far out of the loop I am - I used to take it to Bevan at Sumner Park, but I thought he closed Bowen Hills after a year or so of reopening there. Obviously not!
Thanks again - I'll give him a call.
