[QUOTE="Lawrence, post: 821810, member: 17912"] Richard - PM sent with my contact info. Lindberg's SoCal info list has it as well This does involve a valve adjustment. Supposedly if you look at the Periodic maintenance chart in the Service Manual, everything listed for a 16k service (lots of checking , lubing things like control cables, and the drive shaft??). Definitely (explicitly mentioned) includes pulling off the front forks and rear-end suspension and re-greasing/lubing/whatever that as well. I'm expecting a list of things found and nice price tag for those 'extras' Is most of that really necessary - no. I didn't bother for 120k on my Concours. Then again - it was a tired bike when I finally sold it. I ride daily to work year-round. Maybe I shouldn't be so cheap (so my wife tells me). I love my FJR and figure doing all the recommended maint will be a good way to hit 150-200k on this bike [/QUOTE]
