Some of this is diabolical in that you need the manufacturer’s software to service your motorcycle, which they won’t sell to you. Primarily covering the ABS/traction control mega sensor and throttle by wire sensor that needs to be calibrated after replacement, and Honda’s part approval garbage. The ABS/traction control are great safety features, but what happens if it fails, especially when you really need it or are depending on it too much? You do have a small window to buy a new motorcycle before the telematics hell of cars, trucks and SUVs take over motorcycles (now 5%). I owned a 2002 Kawasaki ZX-6R for 18 years, and did all my own services except the valve checks every 15,000 miles, as I didn’t want to hassle with going to get the shims, and deal with the cramped space between the frame when taking off the valve cover…, and it was only $400 for a comprehensive service… And I never had to do anything other than replacing wearable items, chains, tires… I can’t imagine being locked out of the computer and unable to calibrate new parts though. And the progressing to a CAN bus for less wiring is also troubling, and just sad that these megacorps are against their customers, even lobbying lawmakers against them.
