We have 16° C in Belgium. It's not unusual to ride in november / december but not in summer outfit
Done :

Carbon fuelcap
Rizoma mirrors
Black levers
Suzuki OEM screen
Suzuki OEM passenger seat cover
Remus slip on exhaust
Wheel decal back
L&S tail taidy
Oxford Neptune turnsignals back with LED relais

The bike has to go for the 6000km service. At the same time :
Wheel decal front
Back light with integrated turn signal
Move Oxford Neptune turnsignals to front
Steel or carbon break lines and other breakpads
Dekker, that is a good point but when I got my 1000 km service they wrote in the book next service 6000 km ???
What to do? They have to make the money from you in the warranty years as many people service it privately when that runs out.
I have a friend in my village who is a fully qualified motorcycle mechanic. He used to service my GSXR so he will be back on the go when the warranty runs out on the GSXS.
After having a robust 'discussion' with my dealer about service intervals I contacted Suzuki and asked for clarification. Got a phone call and an apology from my dealer and confirmation that the 12000km interval is correct.
I'll probably still do my oil every 6000 tho.
why are the oil change intevals,twice the distance for Europe.Surely this is a mistake 12000 k is too many [7200 miles,it cannot be correct] Stick to 6000 k or 3500 miles
The first generation manual said that but its been revised to 7500k miles12000km in Europe as the conditions were considered less harsh than in other parts of the world.
I will still get it serviced every 6000 km as I plan to keep this bike for a long old time, it's only money and you can't take it with you. Though the wife pointed out I could leave it to her : - )
Interesting, Well spotted I also noticed for the first time the air filter is due at 22,000 miles or three years I think i'll halve that after the amount of flies I vacuum cleaned out of my K@Ns this summer.
mine states the same,if you look on the next page in your owners manual,section 6-5 all of the distances are half as frequent.I could be wrong,or confused
