Just doing some price checking. What would you guys expect to pay for such a service, for example on my new multistrada? It's an '06 1000ds motor.

BTW, also looking for names for it. None have appeared to me so far.

Hmmm... that's a little close to "Morning Thunder" for me to be entirely comfortable with it...  [laugh]

What are you doing up, anyhow? Go to sleep. Don't you have a job and responsibilities and stuff?  ;)

Honestly, I kinda like Indra...

Just take it to BMS and pay what they charge.  It'll be worth it.  I know they have upped their prices a little over the last couple years (since all these yahoos found out how good they were & all...), but the 6k on the SS ( :'() was @ $600, if I remember right.

What's the old saying...  "If you have to ask..."  ;D

BTW, I like the new avitar.  [thumbsup]  It's you!  ;D
It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

I say Jesus, wait maybe Flying Spaghetti Monster would be more appropriate.  Oh you don't have a monster, well then just Jesus.  [evil]

They picked up my bike this morning. Going for the 6k and to get it fixed after my little get-off Wednesday night.  [bang]

Always wear your gear, kids! Even for short rides around town. I was in jacket, helmet, boots, gloves, and good jeans. As I was sliding on my left side down Alameda (less than a mile from my place) I found myself infinitely thankful for the dead cow and fancy space-age foam products I was wearing. It didn't even get scuffed up!  [thumbsup]

Was going slow in the right lane preparing to find a place to turn around (actively looking around, which means probably weaving a bit) when BAM! a car shifted into my lane and nailed my front wheel (She cut me off and I think she thought I was going to turn into an alley or something). Bike hit the deck  :'( followed by yours truly.

Lessons learned: stay firmly in your lane and telegraph your presence and intentions, remember that your bike follows your head, always wear gear.
