Any owners on here give me clue on the general running costs.

Specifically the servicing costs at the dealers and any additional things that have cropped up??

Thanks

Servicing costs going to be similar to the 916/748/996 range, expect to pay between £250 - £600 for a service, with 6000 mile intervals, otherwise running costs like any other bike.
It's not specifically parts that are the big cost but the amount of hours (and the hourly rate) required to do jobs such as valve clearances etc.
It is essential that the servicing is done correctly though, otherwise even bigger repair bills.
If it's not in warranty there are some good specialists that are a bit cheaper (and sometimes more careful) than main dealers.
