Last year, I had the chain, sprocket and rear tire replaced. This year (2017) in July, I replaced the front tire - just the front tire - as I had not replaced it with the rear last time around, so next time, I guess I should replace both so they are back on schedule.
In addition, I got a new battery, the original finally was not completely charging at 21,450 miles (7 years) and even with a trickle charger the bike gave me at least 2-3 rsw.0005 errors before firing up.
The front brakes were ready for a new set of pads as well. They were at 25% and rear at 50%, so had the fronts replaced with EBC pads.
The wrench icon came on at 22,500 miles, so the bike is in at the dealer now for a major service - valve check, fluids, fork oil change, etc.
Also dealing with some electrical issues, which I'm hoping are not major - on a long ride out east, I got caught in a rainstorm, which seemed to short out my lights, blowing a fuse a couple of times. We'll see what the diagnosis is on that.
Still love this bike - just did almost a 2,000 mile ride on it and it handled it like a champ.
