    600 mile oil change and usual hardware check. My bike going to dealer today who offered to do the service free, I supply the oil so he can make sure he puts together "oil change kits" for his customers and stock. Will get that together and post along with scheduled service intervals. BMW is every 6k. Should be close to the same. Dealer and I were talking to see if the filter, same as for the BMW , will be cheaper through Husky or the same etc. Will post as well.

    The owners manual calls out the typical BMW schedule, 600mi first service, then 6000, 12000, 18000 ... Or 1k, 10k, 20k, 30k in kilometers.

    Much thanks. I was quite curious why the owners manual would not say something so basic...

    What is required at every 6,000 miles?
    If valve inspections, how difficult is it accessing the valves and performing this service?
    When is the timing chain replacement?

    It would help if someone could post the maintenance schedule "table" that summarizes the requirements. Perhaps from the BMW G650GS since the TR650 does not appear available.

    The owners manual only states the intervals. It's useless. :-) I'm looking forward to obtaining a service manual.

    Assuming similar if not identical work as the BMW version of the engine, every 6k mi / 10k km:

    - oil change
    - valve inspect/adjust
    - check things like clutch cable, brakes, torque a few key fasteners, check steering head bearings
    - hook it up to the bmw computer and check faults, reset service indicator

    In addition, at 12k mi / 20k km:

    - replace spark plugs, air filters

    In addition, at 24kmi / 40k km:

    - replace fuel filter

    After first year, and then every two years replace brake fluid

    BMW does not state an interval for the timing change.

    Interesting. I did a web search for 'bmw 650GS service manual' and I came up with a link to a owners manual here:
    http://www.bmw-motorrad.ca/bikes/G650GS

    If that is the same motor & transmission, that means the gear ratio spread is almost exactly 3.14. Pi

    That means whatever speed the bike does at X rpm in first gear, the bike will go 3.14 faster in top gear at the same X rpm... if true, that would be outstanding!

    They are the same across the board. I put together the attached pdf showing gearing and speed (MPH) @ RPM. It looks right, I'll test it against reality next time I'm out.

    Which model/year is the DVD capture from?

    The gearing site is nice, I never thought to search, I've seen similar sites aimed at bicycles. My calculations were more or less identical, but this page is nice for playing around with options.

    Yep same filter as the 650GS, i don't believe it's actually changed since my earlier Rotax's. Back in late 80's my first Aprilia based Rotax used the same filter too.
