Welcome back!
If you have a torque wrench and a metric set of sockets, it's easy to change oil yourself. It says how to do it in the manual that you can download from this forum somewhere.
According to all the stories here, not that I have any personal experience with that, your carburator is probably gummed up and will need a cleaning.
If you bike was in the garage, your tires should be fine. Unless they celebrated their 5th birthday in the interim. Then, get new ones.
I would also oil the cables (2x throttle, 1x clutch) and lube the rear brake cable; and check the torque on the bolts (see manual at "regular maintenance); and change the front brake oil.
