It’s true for some manufacturer’s that not getting the 600 mile service from a manufacturer-licensed shop will void your warranty. Certainly was true for my Suzuki. Either way, it’s definitely an important service as the bike will just be breaking in and there will be lots of metal bits and shavings picked up in the oil/oil-filter. Getting fresh oil and filter in and making sure the bike is breaking in properly is a must.
