Well, I just got the bike back from the shop.

No, nothing bad happened. I just like to start with a clean slate with a new vehicle. I took the bike into the Honda dealership.

I had:
-The carbs synched
-The valves adjusted
-The air filter replaced
-The chain adjusted and lubed
-The oil changed
-The coolant flushed and refilled
-The brake fluid flushed and refilled
-The clutch bled and refilled
-The spark plugs and wires replaced
-The forks lubed

When I requested this service, the service manager looked at me and said: "That might get pretty pricey." I asked him how much. "It might break $300." I laughed. I laughed hard. He looked at me funny. I just explained that I had just sold a sports car and the same service at a dealership would be several thousand dollars.

The final bill was $281.72, including all materials, labor, disposal fees, and taxes.

Yes, I could do the work myself, but in my frame of reference it just seems so cheap and quick (took them four hours) to pay the dealership.
