Here is a breakdown of maintenance so far:
600 mile break in: just under $200.00
6,000 mile valve check and oil change: approximately $200.00
12,000 mile Service 2: $357.00 (New plugs, oil and filter, final drive, Valve check, new brake fluid, and new Air filter)
Congrats Bones! Can you touch flat footed?
From one short rider to another, I find flat footing is highly overrated. If flat footing was required of me I'd never get to ride the bikes that interest me.With the low seat, yes, completely flat footed, but I went with the standard seat. In the low position, the standard seat has me comfortably on the balls of my feet, about where I am on the ST with a Spencer seat lowering mod and on my Versys with the suspension lowering link.
I had two issues with the low seat which I used on the demo ride. (1) With my butt closer to the ground but no change in the location of the pegs, there was too much bend in my knees. (2) The way BMW gets the low seat low is by removing padding. The seat pan is the same. I found it hard and not particularly supportive.
That's nice to see. I never had to add oil to my ST in 86,000 miles.BTW, one other thing that is consistent with every water-cooled boxer that I have seen, NOT a drop of oil is consumed, in comparison to the old boxers.

Does it PTTR like the old 1150s did?
I could have tied a necktie and eaten a sandwich.
