How much did the dealer charge to fit them?

It was probably included with the belt change to put on the rollers. I can't imagine it being more than an hour of shop labor.

Costs were: 1 hr work at £48 + Belt at £40.42 + Roller set at £11.16 + taxes at £19.92 = £119.50

At my last house I had a big double garage with a load of tools but now I'm stuffed into a single shared with a load of junk so working on the scoot myself is a pita.

On the plus side I did get to play with the CRF and they are going to lend me an NC700 to play with while my 15k service is being done :)

Way off topic, sorry, but you pay almost 20% sales tax?

Oh yes - out of income I'm taxed on at 40% plus National Insurance.

Got to pay for our politicians and their peculiarities
