2016 F3-T coolant change
So I have about 9400 miles total on my bike. I have only put maybe 450 total on it. It had a previous owner. Not sure what has been done or not. I did get the oil, oil filter and air filter done.
In regards to the coolant, how many miles before I should consider replacing the fluid?
And is it a DIY kind of thing?

It is a DIY kind of thing and your owner's manual should have a schedule for you to follow. For my 2012 it is every 2 years. When I got mine in 2015 it had never been changed and I had the dealer to it. Good thing because the removing the plug turns out to be a bad thing. I am guessing that it hasn't changed on yours either. It seems that the plug is only a press fit and it doesn't take much to dislodge it. The correct procedure is to remove the radiator hoses and drain it out that way. you can get you fluid tested to see if it is still up to par.

For the 1330 ACE engine it's 28K miles or five years, whichever comes first.
