The GSV had its 80,000 service last week, 

It was done properly, all activities observed.

1. The fuel filter was changed, no indications that this has been done on previous "recent" services. It is a major job, but that is not the point.
2. Air Filter changed, not opened since last service :-[, not seated correctly previously.
3. Heavy corrosion on spark plugs, more than would be expected?
4. The front brake hoses were perished and were seeping during bleeding etc, I have heard of this on the 1100, but not on the 1150, check guys it would not be fun :eek: :eek:

Generally, doubtful that all was paid for in previous services was done. But no I will not name as I have no proof.
