I have read post on here and other forums about self maintenance while a motorcycle is under warranty and I always ask myself how are you going to prove that you did what was required and did it properly.
If you have a receipt for oil, filter, ect. what does that really prove?
Yes it shows you bought it and the date of purchase but did the new oil make it into the bike? Did you really change the filter or add the right amount of oil or put it in the right place?
Maybe you gave the oil to a friend or your kid used it in his car.
How are you going to prove the mileage at which you change it? I could write anything I want in the book.
What qualifications do you have? Are you a mechanic or certified in any way to work on a motorcycle?
If something fails how are you going to prove that you followed all of the required maintenance?
