Yeah. I must admit, last service he recommended new chain & sprockets. The bike had only done 12000klm since last change so I thought that was a bit strange.
Now this service new head bearings.
I'm no expert so I take the advice.
if we were talking cars, no problem, but I'm blonde when it comes to bikes.
It's a tough one but you have to find a good mechanic that you can trust, on any bike but the Busa especially you cant afford to have anything amiss when you are ON IT.
I pay a little more i know for the work thats done on mine, but its worth it to know that there has been no shortcuts taken which is important.
On my last bike, a Suzuki Bandit 1200 i took it for a service to a big dealer in Sydney City - charged me a fortune when i got home i ran a spanner over the important bits to find the 4 lower steering clamp bolt were finger tight - could have been deadly on a quick two up ride through the twisties
Take your Busa to either Pete's PS or Ron Balls, it will be worth the inconvenience for sure and give you peace of mind too
