do you keep DIY service records?

[Stig / Major Tom]

Where?

From early on I used the back pages of my LIKE's owner's manual to write down all the servicing, DIY or dealer; including tire changes, battery replacements.
 I had to reprint & add the lined page Kymco put back there - more than once.

I use the blank back pages of the Piaggio manual to do the same.

Sometimes I forget to write things down - hate that - have to go back at look at photos I took to see the dates.

Cyclepedia has a place I can keep track of servicing with my life-time subscription ($42.75 in 2013) - but I never use that. Just grab the manual and note things own. Not sure they still offer life-time subs?

Thank my job I guess, but I have Word documents with all my records on them...

I use Google Sheets to keep a document of all the service I do, or any shop does, on my bikes. Date-odometer-what was done.

The previous owner of my JD lawn tractor wrote one line for service he did on the tractor but left off the date so I don't know when that happened. I hate that.. Otherwise I continued on the same blank page in that manual with the date and hours and detail.

I keep a spreadsheet on my laptop, in my 'maintenance' folder, for each of my things with an engine that I take care of..cars, scooters, motorcycle, lawn mower, snow blowers and generator. I have an hour meter on the lawn mower, one of the snowblowers and the generator to help with oil change intervals.

Back of the owner's manual for cars, too!
