Is it worth paying to get my bike (2006 GN250) serviced! I can do most things myself, just short on time and lack of proper tools etc at my house. What would you expect roughly to pay for a service/ what work to be carried out, or recommend! I have been told to keep checking the valve clearances as they can be a problem, but I don't have feeler guages etc. Cheers

The tools to do the job are cheap.
Either buy the tools and do it yourself (I presume you know how) or take it to a mechanic and pay him to do it.
As for is it worth it. that depends on how important reliability and durability are to you. They're a pretty basic donk so they'll run even miles out of tune. But if your clearances are out etc. there are consequences.

If you do it yourself, you'll know its done right.

Nick--servicing a ginny is ALMOST the easiest engine I could think of to service. Youll need a couple of litres of oil. an oil filtera spark plug,a set of feeler gauges, the factory tool kit and maybee 2 small spanners. REALLY easy to set the valves.-Important you do or youll end up wearing out the lobes
