Service Question

Post by **Wayno28** » Sun Feb 25, 2007 5:46 pm

I have had my R for about 2.5 years and it only has 3000
miles on it. At the dealer one says go with 6000 service and
onother guy says wait for 6000. Reason for low milage
is have had three surgerys including Open Heart and I ride my
DR650 a lot.
I think i am going to have them do a 6000 service but wanted to
know what other opinions are. Warranty goes in Aug 07.

Opinions?

I would probably change the engine oil, and that would be it for now. The valve and throttle body adjustment is not affected by lack of riding.

Don't forget about your brakes. If you've missed your scheduled brake and clutch flush, it'll need it regardless of miles.

Hope you'll be able to get out on her more.

Good luck.

Go with what Biff and the Monkey said - engine oil/filter and hydraulics. A throttlebody adjustment couldn't hurt either.
