Default Dyno at 500 ok or wait for 1000

Like it says. Just hit 500 today and am wondering if I should wait for the 1000 mile service before getting on the dyno, or is it good to go at 500? I was planning on going now, and was going to drop the oil prior to the dyno anyway. It came from the factory with syn, so that's what it getting.

Thanks.

All you've done to your bike is cosmetic changes, so why do you believe it needs a Dyno tune? The engine and exhaust are still OEM aren't they?

If for some reason you feel that you must Dyno tune a new stock bike I would wait until 1,000 miles...
