16k Service

[Pobbles 38]

Apologies if this has been covered before.

 

Reaching my 16k service point. Is there anything specifically I should make sure my mechanic looks at, aside from obvious stuff like oil and brake fluid changes, air filter, plugs and stuff?

 

I'm gonna get him to grease up the rear shock linkage, as I know.thats an issue.

(Nc750s 2016).

 

Cheers

Don't think plugs are a 16k item and quite expensive, so if the don't need to change according to service schedule I would leave alone and save the money.

Chain and sprockets?Tyres?Brake pads?Fork oil? Tappets?Wheel bearings?

Just had mine done. Got the air filter (which is a pain to get to) and valves checked and adjusted. All the rest checked over and all fine.

The plugs will last well over 30k, they’re the iridium type which last way longer in cars. I’d be happy to leave them in until 50k at least. Valve clearances should be checked, although likely as not they’ll be ok if they were done at 8k. I think they’d still be worth checking. After four years it wouldn’t hurt to have a brake fluid check/change either.

I’d also change the air filter. I left mine in until 24k and it was pretty much choked.
Then just a repeat of what @MatBin said.👍

If you have a standard Honda centre stand get them to take the spindle out and grease it, if you don't have a Centre stand you don't need to😁

Now, What would the scope of  "PIVOT POINTS LUBE" be?

[Grumpy old man 4,682]

Brake and clutch levers, hand brake, hinged foot rests?

Oh OK thanks. was wondering if it meant anything more substantial like greasing links etc, but guess that's a bigger job than a service item even if a big service.
