I bought my 1290 in October 2019 for the purpose of Euro tours for the next 3 years or so.
Due to covid it had its first/annual service in April 2020 at 819 miles in prep for a trip to France and Spain in June which was obviously cancelled.
I have called my local dealer to book in for its 2nd annual service prior to a planned tour of Slovenia/Dolomites at end of August. He suggested I will be ok to get it done mid July and this will not affect the warranty. I was told all fluids need replacing at this service and it will cost around the £350 mark.
Going by KTM's service intervals my mileage for this service should be around 19000, actual current mileage is 1302!
Has anyone had experience of talking to KTM in regards to allowing items to be ignored on servicing, as it seems unfair to be charged for a 2nd service with the amount of miles completed.
Even if the weather picks up and I commute now and then I cant see my mileage reaching any more than 3000 before mid July.
