Trying to get a ball park of what a dealer would charge for the 10,000 mile service. I can change the fluids but it seems like the brake/clutch bleed might not be done. I have a compressor powered vacuum bleeder I've always used successfully with my previous bikes. But from what I've read, the ABS must be triggered. I think I've also seen that Tune ECU won't access ABS module on newer than 2020 models.

None of the fluid renewal (or bleed procedures) require "triggering" the ABS module if performed properly.

Brake and clutch fluid renewals are scheduled for every two years--they aren't on the mileage schedule. Bleeds are only necessary if there's an issue necessitating a bleed.

I don't think the clutch bleed is until 20K. If you want to do the 10K yourself, see below.......
Bleeding the front brake is pretty straightforward, but lookup how to burp the master cylinder.
I'd recommend sucking out what you will find to be really dirty-skunky fluid from the MC of the clutch, but don't go so far as to introduce air into the system, and refill with fresh DOT4. Be sure to do the same "burp" on the clutch. Then, at 20K do the full clutch bleed.

This link gets into the clutch bleed, including bleeding (burping) the MC, which is not mentioned in the manual, but is the same as the front brake...

My bike is currently in for it's 10k service and it's now got just under 12k on the clock due to lead time to get a booking slot at the local dealer.

I've been quoted £600 (pounds sterling) or there abouts.
This includes fuel & air filter replacement in addition to what the bike currently needs due to it's age etc...

It's an early 2020MY bike.

I regard my dealership prices to be pretty high.

So....for example, they quoted me £100 just to swap the rear tyre (inc. balancing), which I got my regular bike shop to do for £25 last Tuesday. Still not exactly cheap, but I think it's a fair price to pay.

My bike is still having it's service as i'm typing this, and i've just received a 'bike health check' message from them and they are recommending new brake pads (Quoted at £91 inc fitting) and they are recommending a new front tyre, but because they don't have any Avons to match my new rear tyre, they want to sell me a full set of Metzelers at a price of £590.
Of course, I will be declining their offer on the pads & tyres, but I am currently of the opinion that it's better to at least get the annual service done at the main dealership until I can seek out an independent garage that specialises in Rockets, so I know that the correct procedures are adhered to.

Stuff like brake pads I can do myself, but i'm not ready to tear the bike down to do filters etc...Not just yet.
