Wow! I have a new R1200R and was calling around for a quote on first (600 mile) service: 350 bucks. They pointed out that they use full synthetic, change final drive fluid, and do a "thorough" inspection. I've owned several BMWs, albeit my last new one was a 2005 RT. It's first service cost nowhere this. The R1200R is a naked bike - no pesky panels to deal with - so the time on the bench should be short. It is, after all, basically an oil change. My Porsche costs less to service (and the first service on it was free). I'm wondering if this type of service pricing is common for these bikes.
