Default 1st service
Is there a checklist that details what is actually done at first service (1000 mile)? I'm out of warranty and just rolled 1000 miles and just gonna do it myself. Other than adjustments, greasing the neck, and oil/ filter etc. What else?

It's in your owners manual.

You may want to look into a service manual as well. Very handy. Money well spent, one service will pay for it about 8 times over.

Go buy the service manual.

It is $60 well spent, and details every step.

At the rate you are racking up miles why even bother. Just ride.
