I have had a somewhat pleasant afternoon stripping all the plastic off and doing an oil and filter change on my 1300. Although I have had the bike since January, I have only ridden it three times, including the trip to bring it home. (Bloody council stuffing up the 30 Kms of dirt between me and the black stuff.) So this is a bit of a 'getting to know it' job, and I have taken off way more than I need to.
