Wow $ 176 to change your oil and check a couple of things for being in spec. Crazy. Would be interesting to know exactly what they would tell you they did for that kind of money. They don't check valves, or timing, or idle adjustment even. No spokes to check tension on. Doubt seriously they pulled out a torque wrench and checked torque on motor mount bolts. No water to check in the battery. Not much to do on a 600 mile service these days.
Although I hear a valve adjustment is required at the 600 mile service on the new 500 twins. If that were the case one would need a dealer unless they were very mechanically inclined and had a service manual.
