Good question.  The manual tends to imply all the bolts :)

It took my dealer about 40 minutes while they changed the oil, checked that bolts and changed the final drive fluid. it cost me about 100.00 to get it done.

So if I understand what is being said:

600 Mile service is nothing more than changing the engine oil and filter, changing the shaft oil and checking all the fasteners?

I am leaning towards doing that myself, and spending the money saved on a service manual!
