Hey man, good to hear from you again!! There isn't much more than fluid changes involved in the 5,000 mile service. Just general check of "critical fasteners" etc. Also should change the tranny fluid. It is MOST certainly needed, but not at the steeler. Ride down to Nashville, and we can have a few cold ones and do the service quicker than a dealer will get ya out.

Buy the service manual and do the 5k service yourself.
Checking fastener torques, primary chain adjustment, clutch adjustment, throttle cable adjust and lube, belt tight...and the fluid change. A few other things, but nothing an avg person that can change oil/filter can't do.
The first time might be a lil more expensive if you don't have the tools, etc that you will need. Buy them once, and then you'll always have them.
If you want it done right, do it yourself.
