"Why do I have to spent a lot of time servicing my motorcycle, instead of bring it to an authorised workshop?" Sometimes, servicing your motorcycle by yourself costs more. However:
a) You eliminate damages to plastic covers, fairing and paint.
b) You use the best materials and spare-parts.
c) It's YOUR bike, thus you really care about it.
d) You built a new friendship with other TAers when you try to service your bikes all together.
e) Your bike becomes a part of your life. It's not a simple commuting device anymore (like the 4-wheel cages).

NOTE: Please read the "Maintenance schedule" page first.
