Its been posted on here several times about wrong tyre sizes affecting handling so I agree with what youre saying there, stock size is that for a reason.
I'm not aware of dealers riding a bike as part of a pdi check, (mine had 000000 miles on it when I collected it) I think its purely a visual check that everything is where it should be and not loose or falling off.
I'm not sure what should be cleaned/ replaced at 4000mile service, have a search on here, perhaps it should only have the oil changed??
I think after its running in oil change service at 600miles its only due full service at 6000miles. (anyone confirm please?)
Does seem a little misleading though to say its been serviced, they should have stated that the oil had been changed.
