Ok - I had my bike tended to by Reece/Rhys at Race Replica - Brooklyn just yesterday for a major service and tune, including valve clearances.

Never before after a major service have I noticed so many good things - adjusted things - and I'm a girl - a happy one now!

Total cost if you're curious was $340 after a $30 KSRC discount.

Bye bye old mechanic.

Yah, he wasn't specific about what discount exactly, but I just said "You give Kawasaki club discounts, don't you?" and he said "yeah" and jiggled the computer a bit and the cost was less his original $370.

Mind you, the verbal quote before the job started was "around $380"

So, I reckon $340 isn't too bad ay?

Maybe it was the classy KSRC stickers on my bike and the back of my helmet that made him melt.... :P

A major service on a zx6 or zx10 around here is about $600..
I paid $220 for a 6000 k service last week (I suppled the oil) by Pro-Tune The advantage with that is they come to your house or place of work.
You should try Narellan Kawasaki as they are a sponsor. Long way for you though.. :-)

Well i got a quote (they seemed nice) full major 24,000 service for $380 - very reasonable if you ask me

However - I'm still very keen to learn how to do it myself so i'll probably still do it myself
