    Youll need a new chain and sprockets !!!grrrrrr

    Anyways....to get to the actual point..^_^

    At 47000 even tho its not quite due for a major service would it be wise to get all the fluids done.

    When's the major service on these?
    I know the R1 gets a major at 40K, if yours isn't far off, just wait and get it all done at once.
    Might pay to change the oil just for your piece of mind.
    If you want a bit of extra squirt, go one tooth down on your front sprocket when you get them changed (sorry, don't know the standard tooth count on these so can't recommend a sprocket size for you).

      if the major is at 48000. I'm sure getting the major done 1000km wont harm it if you're that concerned...

        ^^^ If it's major is 48K, get it done whenever, a thousand kays won't make a difference.

            K-tec or Derek Ball are your bet (mobile mechanics)

            Dealers will charge you through the nose.
