Servicing should be no different.
Cheaper options to make it road legal in the UK are:
1. Headlight: put black insulating tape on the light lens - there is a triangular pattern on the lens that once covered will prevent light from kicking slightly to the right. This was done by the MOT tester on my girlfriends imported R80GS for the MOT in 2002.
2. Speedo: get an adhesive overlay to stick on top of the speedo glass. Line it up correctly i.e. 30mph/50kmh & 50mph/80kmh & it should pass. They used to cost less than £10.00 & were bike specific (try BAT M/cycles in London?). I made one out of LetraSet for the R80 mentioned above. Last year, the MOT tester did not even notice the speedo was km's only.....
