Had my Stator recall work done at Padgett's + 24mth service. Excellent service and they even knocked the cost of the oil off because it came as part of the recall  :thumb: :thumb: They just deducted it without me having to ask? Would definitely use them again.

A free oil change, filter not included, is part of the recall. It's mandatory. Some places have tilted the bike a bit, topped off instead of changing or other nefarious acts. Those are the places that need to be called out.
Pat- 2007 DL650A was ridden to all 48 contiguous states. 2012 DL650A outlasted me.
Nicknames I use to lessen typing, Vee = 2002-2012 (K2-L2) DL1000s. Veek=2014+ (L4+) DL1000s. Wee = 2004-2011 (K4-L1) DL650s. Glee = 2012+ (L2+) DL650s

Yep GS Motorcycles in Hillsborough are ones to avoid but unfortunately Suzuki dealers in N. Ireland are pretty scarce, If there's a next time.. I'll be getting mine done when I'm in England, will not be going back to GS, would even put me off buying another Suzuki if that's the level of service you get from the dealers.

This is how I got mine back back after stator recall, not even topped up, sent images to Suzuki UK and they weren't too bothered. Told me that according to the dealer the oil was changed and to contact them.

I bought my vstrom 650 in January this year and it has just been into dealer today for the stator recall
It takes about two and a half hours to do

Took my bike into Via Moto  Sheffield today for the stator recall. Left it for the day but they phoned about 2pm to say it was ready. I was the first one to have the recall done as they have only been the Suzuki dealer for about 2 weeks. They also informed me that the oil was replaced in full. So rode home a happy bunny. Pity that they charge too much for the service. I will go to my local independent dealer for that.
