    Just bought one for each of my bikes
    I like recording this stuff using Excel on the computer, but a log book enables you can staple receipts in and other records

    Nice shout, cheerd

    That is assuming that the home mechanic is as diligent as you DD, I have come across many a home serviced and fettled nightmare with lots of paperwork but no skills :rolleyes::rolleyes:

    I did this when I did most of my own servicing. The guy that bought my SV650 seemed very pleased with it.

    This is bound to put a smile on the next owners face, as well as evidence of a well cared bike!

    I always record indicated mileage against maintenance / accessory purchase receipts as well

    Yep print off some self created excel tables and have a clipboard per vehicle hanging in the garage. I make hand written entries of anything relevant then type these up periodically, copy to pc and replace the scribbled copy.

    Once bought a bike from an ex ships engineer and he was like me documenting detail; I was impressed.

    Well, I wasn't best pleased with the book I got, just didn't feel right. Ended up with a book from Tesco and made my own index tabs out of white stickers! Here is the pic;
