I know I am probably beating a dead horse, butmy Bob isgoing to be due for it's 10,000 mile service. I heard it was around $500.00. Is it worth it or should I just buy the book and do it myself.

In your area you'll find some great (small privately owned) shops but it is enjoyable to do this yourself.

If you are pretty good with tools and such...do it yourself. I dont take my bike in for anything at the dealer unless its something I just absolutely dont have the tools or equipment for. Save yourself some dough.
Go slow and be thorough read and re-read your tech manual for that particular service requirement. Most of all enjoy!

Workin on my own stuff has always given me a certain appreciation and sense of security.
