So my bike is getting close to hitting that 4,000 mile mark, (can't believe I'v put 3,000 miles on it in less than two months), and I have some questions about the maintenance schedule.
There's a few things I can take care of myself such as changing the oil, checking the air filter, exhaust for leaks, and chain. But I'm not comfortable doing things such as checking the spark plug gap, fuel lines, cables, different points that need to be lubed, synchronization, etc.
With this in mind I'v been thinking about taking the bike in to a shop to have some things done.
Will the shop actually go into detail checking the items listed in the manual or will they just give the bike a quick once over?
Also the manual states that brake lines should be changed every four years ,(my bike is a 2009 with stock lines and fluid), should I have mine changed out?
Is it possible for the fuel injection sync to be off with this few miles?
(My previous Ninja 250R had all sorts of carb. problems by 5,000 miles).
What kind of experiences has everyone here had with the 4,000 mi service?
Best,
Benji
