Default 7500 mile M50 service

Hiya - guess I've been riding and working a lot more than posting, though sometimes I post from 'work' when I get can get away with it, heh heh.

I've ridden for about a year now, I'm still loving this bike - though my eye does wander to the new Bandit 1250S at times.

So I've got an appointment with th' stealer for 7,500 mile service on the '07 m50..

Am I a pigeon to pay them the asked for approximately $450 for this?

I'm not that great of a mechanic, though once without any help I was able to install a hurst shifter into my '89 Mustand 5.0 (the rare notchback, NOT hatchback!). I don't have the tools anymore to do this kind of thing.

Is there anything in the recommended 7,500 service for this bike that I could tell the dealer not to bother with, save some dough? Or since I'm leaving it in their hands should I fork over the $450 and figure the bike will be A OK for a while? Thanks for insights on this!
