We’re going through the motions to do a Full Maintenance Service on my 2002 BMW R1150GS Adventure. This is devided into two parts. Today, we’ll change the engine, gearbox, and final drive oils. We’ll also change the hydraulic fluid I the front and rear brakes, and also the clutch. Finally, we’ll change and tension the alternator belt.
