Brought my R18C to the dealer from which I purchased it from to have the 6K valve check done. The rest of the 6K service I did myself.

They only charged me about a hour of labor to perform the job. The valves were out of spec, in which I imagined they would be, being that the job had never been done before.

The bike was running great when I bought it in, and now it is running even better with the valve adjustment. Not a huge difference, but just slightly... Might be in my head too....lol

My experience with Cycle Works of Barrington has all been very positive!
 
Good on you !! and the shop as well. It is nice to hear that there is still shops out there that appreciate and work with riders ... faith in the world a tiny bit restored ... good !
