[sparkplug]

This page is to give an idea of what to expect over the course of five years with a GSXR 750H, the outlay covers dates, mileages & jobs done/parts replaced

please note that while every effort has been made to keep this list updated in the last five years there are a couple of entries missing due to laziness if the log was further than arms reach away or I just plumb forgot. The only entries missing are brake pads/oil/oil filter/sparks so do them at every 4,000km., obviously brake pads when they wear out.
