Please note I have not included any "Farkling" costs incurred within the running costs total.  This is simply because it was my choice to "Farkle" Mr T rather than it being a part of the servicing scheduled.

These figures have no bearing on Yamaha Motorcycles or Keith Dixon Motorcycles in any way and are only intended as a guide for people considering buying this amazing motorbike.
