Yes. I believe they are supposed to also check your valve clearances. Not completely sure on the GSX-R 600 though. You could do most of it yourself really.

I would get it done regardless if you do it or not. Skimping on service and maintenance early in the bike's life will cost you a lot more $$$ in the future.

Motorcycles are not cars, and they need three or four times the maintenance. That is why they are expensive to maintain correctly. Like owning a Ferrari vs. a Chevy. That is why you learn to do it yourself. Save the money and know it was done and done right.

I worked on a couple of bikes this past weekend that were REAL bad due to lack of maintenance. Real shame too.
