Bike sent into BMW for a yearly service and the garage promptly did a 6K service on the bike when there was only just over 5K on the clock. Not an issue I'm sure to blow through 6K in a few weeks. Got a call to say the bike was done but the front tyre was close to legal limit and did I want to have it changed. I did not even think about the tyres before the service so I ok'd the tyre change. Bike was late coming out of the shop so I sat and spoke to the chaps about the 1000XR. Conversation was interrupted to tell me that the front brake pads had delaminated when the wheel was removed. Oh and it was 17:55 and the pads would not be get there until the next day. Just under 200 notes for the service, 150 ish for the new tyre and another 140 for 2 sets of pads.
I asked for a 1000XR loan bike as I?m thinking of replacing my 7yr old GS. Did not get on with the XR at all so I?m about to drop 15K on a new GSA?..I?d say that?s one hell of an expensive service/visit to the dealer.
