Peabody Posted March 23, 2008 Posted March 23, 2008 I got the gold service for my 1300 when I bought it in May. The 4,000 mile service invoice runs in the neighborhood of $480. I'm just glad I don't have to pay it for another 2 years. I did most of the servicing on my old bike (the shop where I bought it sabotaged it on the 600 mile service) and Yamaha wouldn't do jack about it. They say if the oil levels weren't spec'd (the dealership tried to give me the bike without any oil at all) then the warranty was void. When I said the dealer is the one that drained the oil out in the first place, they said that wasn't Yamaha's problem. (I'm still not sure why I got another Yamaha after that) I'm about to hit 20,000 miles on the odometer, so I'll ask my mechanic if the valves are needing adjustment every time I bring it in.
