And 70,000 miles out of a paper air filter  :lol

:'( Possibly! In my defense, I get it fully serviced every year and when the mechanic charged me for an air filter I assumed he had changed it. Last FULL (read expensive, €340 euro = £270) service was in February, just 5 months ago! Coming to that stage that I am spending more on the bike per year than the bike is worth...  :lol

Maybe it is time you started to learn how to do the basic stuff yourself.

In 1977 I was fleeced by a Motorcycle dealer in Dublin because I did not have Vacuum Gauges or the tool for adjusting the tappats on a GS550 Suzuki. I swore after that I would never darken the door of a dealer again other than to buy a bike or maybe spares. :finger

Two weeks later I bought both items in the USA and a friend who was on holidays in the USA brought them to Ireland when he was returning home. (I still have them).. A month later I bought a torque spanner and now own 3 of them.  
I have never left any of my bikes near a shop since, I even change and balance my own tyres.
I o help a friend who is a bike mechanic with electrics and electronics and recently he had a bike which the owner took out of the dealers because there were charging so much to sort out the lack of charging (no pun intended) on his bike. When he took the bike out and gave it to my friend, we discovered they had melted the ignition switch after fitting the wrong regulator to it and chopped the wiring loom to fit the wrong regulator. :wall

Invest is a few good quality tools and especially a good torque spanner in the range of 5 to 50 Nm 3/8 drive.  (The 3 torque spanners I have range from 0 to 20Nm, 3/8 drive,  8 to 50Nm 3/8 drive and 20 to 150Nm 1/2 drive). At least as a beginner you will know bolts are tightened properly. There are many small bolts on bikes which are easily overtightened and stripped.
