I recommend the 3K when the bike is new. Even though the "break in period" is supposed to be 500, I feel it needs another check sooner than later. After that the 3K is a little extreme with todays synthetic oils. But it can also depend on how you ride. If you have a lead wrist like me and prefer speeds that the bobbies don't like, better to service more often for the security that the bike won't do anything odd at high speeds. I always feel like my bikes, cars, etc perform better after a service. I'm sure most of it is mental, but makes me feel better.

Hi Gang,So I am approaching 3,000 miles on my Bonneville and am confused about whether I need to do a servicing. Erico gave me a Triumph service document which says I need to do a 3K service. However, the Triumph owner's manual states there is a 6K service after the initial 500 mile service.Do you guys and gals recommend a 3K service or is it not necessary? I want to keep the bike in tip top shape:).Best,Ross
