600 miles! Sounds like 1 or 2 days of riding! How long you had that bike anyway? Just kidding. Maybe put a few more miles on if you can and do the service before you leave.
I like this suggestion. Ride it some more and then do the change before your big trip.

If there is a dealer in route to where you are going, call ahead and see if they can get you in and out in a reasonable amount of time. That way you know everything is seated properly, + the extra time on the bike can help you determine what doesn't feel right (if any) so you can address them at the 1000 mile check up.
