R57 What would you do?
What would you do?
I've owned a 2010 R57, S for about 7 years now. It was originally a replacement for one of my bikes (MotoGuzzi) as that was what I traded it for, but that's another story.
Car is clean, garage kept, under a dust cover, yada yada.Got it with 30k miles, nothing but oil and air filter changes and just now broke 40k miles. The reason for this long winded question is ... this now has become my second car (not a toy,sunday driver) and driven pretty much daily, I am wondering what are the most important preventive maintenance services one should do at 10 years of sheltered life and 40k miles?
P.s, I've always driven this lil go kart spiritedly and it still makes me smile almost as much as scraping pegs on the Cherohala Skyway!
P.s.2... she still runs like a top.

I'm sorry I forgot to include the "please, and thanks in advance" in the recommendation query, lol! Owners Manual doesn't offer much more than a brake fluid flush.
I was picking the brains of the forum (the amount of expertise here is pretty amazing) to see if it was your car, what would you do to keep it running well and dependably.
I have the N14 engine and have been very careful with oil level..... surprised with over 200 views not even a sarcastic suggestion!
Once again, much obliged in advance, fg

I would check the timing chain for peace of mind, rather than wait for it to become a necessity.
