My 790R went in for its annual service. I do every 5 thousand kms. Or once a year. Told my dealer to check the cams and shims. All were in spec. I also got them to remove the charcoal canister. My bike is on 18000 kms.
I smile when I see chaps asking R70K for a Honda 650L . Or R120K for a 990. I think that is way over the top. even if it has extras and low kms. I will always say check the insurance value. People say you can't compare the insurance value to actual. The reality is that's what the insurance...
Just check it out. I won't buy a bike with rusted forks or rusted spokes. Lots of bikes have rusted fork bottoms. You have to check behind the fork guards. In the case of upside-down forks.
