Well, I just picked up my S40 yesterday from the dealership.
I had taken it in for its 600 mile service.
Total bill: $223.00
Factors in the shop's favor:
This service
did include a valve adjustment.
Also, they damaged my gas tank in the process, scraping off a bit of the paint in two places. I don't think I would have noticed these scratches, but the service manager said they were more than superficial scratches, and went through at least one layer of paint.
So, they have ordered a new tank and will swap it for the current one when it comes in next week!
I give the shop kudos for owning up to the damage they did, especially since I could have very easily ridden off without noticing the scratches.
Still, I'm glad I bought a bike with easy maintenance, 'coz that's the last time I'm gonna pay $200 for an oil change!
Cheers.
