The only OE service parts are likely to be the air filter...
Brake pads i would prefer to use EBC... Sparks are NGK...
And oil to spec, so Castrol 10w30 Semi-synth should fit the bill..
Rear TX oil, i changed yesterday as this is not done at the 600mile - strange as you would think you would want to get out any initial metal fillings, rather than wait 2 yers, the oil seemed a bit gold / bronze shimmery. Dealer said they use 10w40 in the TX, so used the Halfords 10w40 gear oil i use in the yam 400... drained and topped up till the oil comes out the level of the fill hole... hope thars correct as it doesnt state how in the owners manual, but seems correct based on the older SH's according to you tube...
Need to find out what the valve clearances are for the '13 eSP Engined SH125
Real shame that not even Honda will sell a workshop manual, the haines manual is up to '09
Anyone with some proper service info, documents or hard fact - what you do is also most welcome, but nice to know the difference between specification and speculation...
