Took my 695 in for the 7500 mile service today.  Just wondering what some of you 695 owners have paid for yours.  Not sure what to expect.  Hate not seeing the bike next to the other. Drives me nuts.  But at least its in good hands.

Thanks in advance. [bacon] [bacon]

I had my 7500 mile service done a bit early, so I could have the heads replaced under warranty for the discoloration.  The dealer, MCC in Villa Park, Illinois, turned it around in 2 weeks in August.  They did the valves, of course, since the heads are new, and replaced the belts.  The total for all of this was a little more than $400.00.  It would have been ready sooner, but when they took it all apart they replaced a few more parts due to discoloration than they had planned - and had to order the parts.  The bike looks great and it runs perfectly.

I believe some other forum members have had some complaints about MCC, but I will say they have done right by me.  I didn't even buy the bike there, I bought it from a guy in Florida and rode it home.  I will be going back there for any dealer service - and when I look for another Duc, I will buy it from them.

Ok, got the bike bike today.  Total cost was $502.95.  Bit more than I expected  [bang]  At least it will not need to go in for a long while.
