What a major service includes
A major service goes further than an oil change. We check the chain and sprockets, brake pads and fluid, suspension, wheel bearings and all fasteners for torque. Spark plugs, the air filter and coolant get checked too, along with the battery and lights.
We also road test the bike afterwards. If something still feels off, we sort it before you collect your bike, not after.
What We Check
Starting from the engine out, we check compression, valve clearances where the schedule calls for it, and the condition of the chain and sprockets. Brake wear gets close attention, pads, discs, and fluid condition, since brakes are not something to guess about. We also check tyre condition, lights, and the battery, and tighten anything that has worked loose since the last visit.
A major service is the one visit a year where nothing gets skipped. We go through the bike as if it were about to leave on a long trip, because for some riders, it is.

Some jobs get overlooked on a quick service but matter a lot on a major one. Fluid changes fall into this group, brake fluid absorbs moisture over time and loses its bite, while old coolant stops protecting the engine the way it should. We also check the suspension seals and the swingarm bushes, parts that wear slowly but affect how the bike handles every day.
Parts We Replace Every Time
Oil, oil filter, and spark plugs are replaced as standard on every major service. We also renew the air filter once it has reached the end of its life, rather than just cleaning it.
How Long It Takes
A major service usually takes a full day, sometimes longer if we find worn parts that need ordering. We would rather take the extra time than rush a job that keeps you safe on the road.
Once the service is done, we take the bike for a short test ride before handing it back. Final check covers gear changes, braking feel, and any noise that was not there before. If anything feels off, we sort it on the spot rather than letting you ride away and find out on your own.
