Default Routine Maintenance

OK so this is going to sound bad, but here goes. I just want to have some maintenance done on my bike, and some of the things I am not sure how to do nor do I have the time. I am looking to have the carbs cleaned, fluids changed, and really just want to make sure everything is ok. I know I should be doing this stuff myself, but its probably not going to happen. So my question is what should I expect to pay for this type of stuff to be done?

OK, so I wasn't too far off, I figured 300. I may wait tillnext springto have it all done though. So how big of a job is it to strip the bike and pull the carbs off? Maybe this is something I can do over the winter or something. Also once you have them off, what is involved in cleaning them? do you have to take the carbs themselves apart?

you can do it in 2 days.. its super easy to get to the carbs, somtimes they are on pretty good and you have to pry the hell out of them to get them out...

here is a amazing write up on how to clean them..-- https://cbrforum.com/m_311016/tm.htm

400 is dealer prices, trust me dont pay to have ur fluids changed (oil, coolant, brake) that is as simple as typin a message on this forum. spend that money else where like do a carb cleanin and carb syncronazation(hope i got that right).
