then my extended warranty will be voided.(BlueHaya @ Apr. 21 2007,21:37) Do it yourself.
All I did was change oil, filter, lube the chain and check the cables and other fluids. Save yourself a couple of hundred and do it your self.
Yes, a big steaming pile at that.(Sloto200 @ Apr. 21 2007,20:11) warranty voided because you dont take it in to have it serviced?? sounds like the dealer fed you some bs to go along with that warranty...
I suggest trying to verify that. If it's true let a dealer do the service. If you can DIY, a good mechanic will be able to tell if it is being maintained properly. My Kawasaki ext. warranty specifies any "authorized dealer" will honor the warranty, but it does not specify they have to perform the recommended service, just that it needs to be maintained properly. Documentation comes into play then.(///M+Busa @ Apr. 22 2007,07) Yea, i thought so to. But right on the back of the extended warranty service plan contract it says in black and white; there’s is one thing you have to do to maintain your 4yr extended service plan "bring your bike in to an authorized Suzuki dealer for its normal service intervals"
You need to read your warranty. If you can't find a clause requiring you to use a zuki dealer, then ask them straight up about it, and if they maintain it will void warranty then ask that they show you in writting.(///M+Busa @ Apr. 21 2007,21:38)then my extended warranty will be voided.(BlueHaya @ Apr. 21 2007,21:37) Do it yourself.

And hopefully they did it(Spike @ Apr. 22 2007,12:45) Just to add a dissenting voice. (Sorry guys)
I wrench and always have but the 600 mile service I brought my Hayabusa in to get it done. I think I paid roughly $175-200. I don't recall, it was a while ago.
For my own peace of mind I wanted them to give the entire bike a once over and check all bolts, connections, change the oil etc. since it was a new bike. I will do all maintenance after that first one but felt better having them do the first one.
