Just so that you know I'll be following my own advice.
There's a ride out on Sunday and ideally I'd be using my ST2 to save getting my 888 grubby.
But the ST was due a service in October to change the 2 year old belts (that's their service life), but because of all the personal crap I've been through in the last 6 months I haven't got round to getting the bike serviced yet, so I won't be using it until I do.
