I hit 1000 miles on my 9S (1040 actually) and have not had it serviced yet. My question is this- I want to go to the rally in Austin tommorow, I live in Houston, so it would be about a 320 mile trip plus a few ridin around miles. Should I take my bike with out having the 1000 mile service? I tried to get it in this past week but no luck, have to wait til Teusday. I think it wouldn't be that big of a deal but was wondering if someone might know something I don't.

Change the oils and go. Do the rest when you return. No worries.

I wouldn't worry about it either. Just changes the oils like Blake stated and you should be just fine.

Ditto...change the oil/tranny fluid, check your tire pressure and get some gas, then go have fun!

I would check the Primary chain tension just to be on the safe side.

Dunno Jason,

I'd probably check the neutral indicator pin on your shifter fork drum just to be on the safe side.
