Default when to service?

I bought my '06 SB used w/ about 7900 miles. The previous owner took great care of it and maintained it regularly. However, I didn't ask him when he last serviced it. I have put roughly 300 miles on it. Should I change the oil asap just to be on the safe side? Also, my exhaust is making a gurgling sound, is this normal? This is my first bike in about a decade, so I have some stupid questions.
