General Comments

A general service on my Yamaha TMAX was £250 and the 12000 service £550 with belt change, new pads. Alternator went at 16,000 just out of warranty, quoted £550 for new so had old one rewound and fitted for £250 and sold it at 18000miles. Depreciation was horrific for the 2 Years and 4 Months of ownership from new, dropped £2,700 on a discounted purchase price despite the bike being immaculate. No interest for 2 months in Autotrader and MCN. The most expensive bike that I have ever run. The Honda Deauville would have been a far better choice.
