uberthumper is on a distinguished road
Mine has been to the dealers so far, and will go back for it's 18,000 mile service within the next couple of weeks. Mostly because it's under warranty at the moment - I know you can get Yamaha to honour warranty claims with servicing by an independent/yourself, but it's an additional headache, whereas I've had no hassle getting my local dealer to put in claims for stuff either I've noticed or they've noticed. I don't know of a decent independent garage up here either. My bike's had probably a couple of grand's worth of warranty work done over the last couple of years, so I think I've got VFM out of it

But that will be the last one. Warranty is up at the end of the month, so it'll be done at home thereafter, unless I'm feeling money-rich and time-poor next time it's due.
