And that's sad for those of us who want or need to get servicing done by dealers or other qualified people as the overheads in these large, fancy dealers mean they charge like a wounded bull. I had my car serviced by the local dealer for a bit. I'd turn up to be met by a glamorous girl with a clipboard making sure they were clear about what had to be done. When I got it back, it had been washed and the cash register dials were smoking from spinning so hard. The work was fine, but the bills were outrageous.
As soon as the CB1100 is out of warranty, I'll either improve my own skills or find a small, local bike mechanic to do the work for me. It will be just as good and a damned sight cheaper.
