2015 S1KRR service, any independents in London?

Hey all, annual service is due, it's been a sunny weekend/track toy, so is just coming up to 4000 miles. Any guide to what sort of prices I should pay?

I did go for an extended BMW warranty, not sure BMW will do me any favours anyhow, but am somewhat skint so would like a decent job but hopefully not main dealer prices- any reputable indie suggestions in London? Or is everywhere going to be much of a muchness?

Jap & German Bermondsey?

FWR in Kennington quote ?60 p/h labour inc VAT. Good oil would be about ?40-?50 oem filter ?15.
BMW Battersea charge ?100 + VAT p/h labour.

FWR are good guys, can the do the BMW computery bits though?

Possibly not...but I bet 99% of the time the BMW dealer plugs it in to the computer; all is well, then they change the oil & filter.
I see that Jap&German do have BMW diagnostics

Cheers all. Jap & German quoted ?265 inc VAT, sounds OK to me.

I know FWR well, used them a lot, but as you say it's the techy stuff. Will give 'em a call later methinks.

True enough - but I assume the service date can't be reset without that equipment. Which is what I was getting at if you'd read my mind properly

J&G are err interesting... especially if you like BMW C1's!

Ah...yes....sorry I left my clairvoyant hat at home today...:redface-new: Nothing more annoying than a rogue service reminder message. Is there no hack with these bikes to reset the service interval without a computer or fault code reader?
