I had my 10,000 mile service, new rear brake pads, and two new tires put on this past Friday. The dealer did a great job on the bike but now I can't afford to ride it!
I am really dreading the 20,000 mile service now!

So I am going to go out on a limb and guess that they rocked you on the price? Over $1,000.00?

Ya, the total for everything (10,000 service, tires, install, brake pads, etc.) was $1,200.

I think that isn't so bad considering a pretty large chunk of that is the tires. These pirelli Angels are not cheap! They are great tires though and I do not plan on using a different type when it's time to do mine.
You went through your brake pads in 10,000 miles? That seems a bit early to me. I have 35,000 miles on my Vision and I am still on the same pads! I put 22,000 on the Suzuki before I had to put pads on it. Not the end of the world or anything, just curious as to why the pads went away so quickly...

Can't compare directly as I didn't have pads and I arranged both my tyres locally.
My 10k service was £332 / Set of Dunlop Pilots £243 fitted = £575 ($779).
I would check that bill and question it...

Looks like a set of Angel A-specs can be had for $330 shipped, just as a point of reference.
Damn Rocketsteve-you could almost buy tires AND a nomar for $779

Yes, about $447.75 US is what I would have expected as well for a service of this type. If we use this number and then factor in everything else I think it will make sense
- 447.75 .............. 10K Service
- 375.00 .............. Set of replacement Pirelli Angel Tires
- 150.00 .............. Labor to install and balance tires
- 120.00 .............. 2 sets of Front and 1 set of Rear brake pads
- 100.00 .............. Labor to install pads
And there you have it! Service done by the dealer is expensive but if you cannot do it yourself and you have a good shop, well, it's worth it I guess. I am in the same boat. The guys that work on my bikes really do a great job and so I bite my lip hard and write that check! It's worth it to me to know that the work was done right by guys that I trust. And actually a lady does the work now on my rides and she is fantastic.

I replaced worn rear brake pads at 16,000, Fronts were like new.
I just purchased Two front sets and one rear set because I am at 33,000 and figured they would need to be replaced. Well fronts are still like new and so are the rear pads. I paid $225 for the pads from Bike Bandit. So did they really sell you Triumph pads for 47% off.
Unless they changed your air filter I can't see how the 10K can cost that much. It's basically an oil change and look over everything.
Something seems is off here to me.
