    I Plan on putting my R6 in this weekend to get serviced, right now the bike has 15,000 miles and I was wondering what I should tell them to check out or get replaced. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks in advance.

    aw shit, thanks for reminding me i need my valve clearance checked

    Valves, Plugs, Oil, Coolant flush, chain & sprockets, ummmmm.... What year is it? carbs or injectors? a carb synch may be in order

    damn, where's my owners manual? There's a section that lists everything that should be checked & at what interval. and there's alot of stuff (mostly just little visual checks)

    Change the oil+filter and sync the carbs and you're done First valve check on the R6 is at 26k miles so don't bother

    I would say greese the wheel bearings but i'm sure every does that whenever they install new rubbers anyways so that should be all set as well

    if you ask them to check that, then according to them you're going to need, a valve adjustment, with expensive shims, new plugs, synthetic motorcycle oil, colant flush, new chain, set of sprockets, and ummm....a flux capacitor and new difribulator modules.

    It's all water under the bridge, and we do enter the next round-robin. Am I wrong?
