I just got my bike and intend to use it as a commuter/touring bike, so  I have been going over my new to me 2001 GS with the assumption that the prior owner is a complete lout and the bike has the original oil prior to putting it on the street. So far that assumption has not been supported by my findings, but I have found a few slack items that should have been found during a quick check like needing to tighten the chain and needing a new rear tire. I intend to put my bike on a fairly rigorous maintenance schedule and would like a spreadsheet to track it.  That said I thought I'd see if any of you have already made one? If not I'll just make one myself.
BTW I love this site. It played a big part in my decision when I decided on the GS.

After I first got my bike, I started to jot down a timeline / "mile-line" of maintenance items on paper, but I didn't get very far.  A spreadsheet would be a great idea! 

I assume that you plan to populate the spreadsheet with information from the [Maintenance Schedule] page?  (Or a similar source)

I think you'll be the first to do this.  Let us know if you are able to crank it out (and decide to make it available).

I have one at home i think... It was from another forum member... PM me your email addy and I will send it to ya 

Ok.. I do have one for sure... Its an Excel Spreadsheet.  If anyone wants it.. PM me your email addy 

This is whats on it..

Considering that ... after you do it 1-2 times, it will take you longer to put it in the spreadsheet than to actually do it, I can see how it will be very very useful ...  ...
Oh yea, I want a relational database, complete will dual key encryption security and eyeball identification security system before you can get into the building or else I aint touching it. It has to be triple extra secure.
Cool.
