[MJS]

I need to get a service on my 996 (bip) before it goes back on the road.

It's 2 years since it was last serviced, albeit with very few miles since then

For various reasons I don't want to be spending a fortune, so what is essential?

Fluids and filters
Belts

What else? The rockers won't have been checked since the last time Nelly serviced it and that's going back a good few years, although it didn't need any then and hasn't done a huge mileage since then.

Any more thoughts?

Cheers
Martin

I'd throw a fuel filter in her to Martin. If the mileage isn't great then you've got it covered with belts and fluids.
Pull clutch apart just to check plates haven't stuck and give her a good once over.

Changing belts normally include checking rockers.
