I was charged £18 for a loan bike for my 600 mile service, the reason for the charge was Insurance cover, apparently it's the admin charge. I decided as the bike was new and under warranty that I would take out the service plan and opted for the 5 year one at a cost of £1350, looking at people being charged £450 I'm thinking I may have got a bargain !!
Does the service plan cover parts and labour?

I ,too, took out the 5 year plan. Covers parts & labour (not tyres) so turned out to be a bit of a bargain, methinks. I still have two years left on mine.

Service plan covers all fluids, labour/inspection. It doesn't cover consumables such as brake pads and tyres which to be honest I'd rather go to a tyre specialist for them as I can have more choice and better prices as with most motorcycle dealers tyre prices are at the maximum as they don't buy enough to get bulk discounts. As for pads as I'm in the trade I can do them myself or get them done at service time for extra cost depending on how I feel at the time

I took the 3 year 18000 mile plan. The first service was the major one with brake fluid, valve clearances, FD oil etc. The 3rd will be the same so I reckon I’ve got one for free as the dealer quoted me at least £450 for the big one.
