also how come some dealers charge around £200ish for 1st annual service and some around £600ish for the same model?
thats a big difference and surely it would be better for your pocket [though maybe not for your ar*e] to travel the length of the country to go for the cheaper option and get a monster ride at the same time?
are the more expensive services having extras done (or a more thorough check over?) or are some dealers jumping on the brand wagon? |
Not quite what we said ... Italia charge only for the parts on the 600 mile service, not labour. The only parts are oil and filter, the labour it to replace the oil AND all the other stuff like check the valves, belt tension, balancing etc, which would normally cost you a couple hundred quid.
They don't charge labour on it because they don't think it's reasonable to fleece you again so soon.
