Bud just got used 2010 rs

Hiya fyi helped my bud get a 2010 RS m5 & we know want tech give a good once over but what else( hidden problems & various unknowns ) should we look for? Not lot of local certified dealers to choose from. More to fight is bout 200miles between us & his job. We are mechanicy inclined & able , just kinda spyder dumb:dontknow::helpsmilie:THX

:congrats:

Have them run the vin and that will give you the complete service history for the unit in question.

The upside, RS is a pretty good machine and we hear little to none about "issues."

:agree: Yup! 2010 was a pretty good year for them. You might want to take a close look at the clutch's fluids...
They do need to be changed, and there were reports of the fluids eating up O-rings in some of the earlier bikes. :shocked:
