The first service is recommended at 600 miles and I paid $199 (not including switching out front sprocket) and I paid this amount because the dealer I took it to charges $90/hr and it was a 2hr job for it including valve check, oil change, oil filter and they supposedly checked everything else checkable on the bike. It all depends on where you get the service done as I have seen many other Honda cbr riders pay alot less and some pay more.
