Checking the valve clearances isn't very complicated. I'm sure there will be posts on here with all the details or Haynes or Yamaha workshop manuals will have the details but are not really needed apart from confirming what has to be taken off to allow the cam cover to be removed.
If the clearances are within spec then its just a case of bolting it back together again. If the clearances need adjusted then its a bit more complicated but nothing that should be a problem with advice on hand. No special tools required apart from a torque wrench which is hardly a special tool.
Should only take a couple of hours.
The £500 to £600 quote must include everything for the 48,000 service. I've not checked the schedule but it probably includes taking forks and steering stem off the grease head bearings and swinging arm out to grease swinging arm bearings.
