shercoben12 Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 Change the gearbox oil every 5-6 hours of use and keep the air filter nice and clean and oiled. Clean the carb every 5-6 rides and keep the coolant topped up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippy Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 in addition to previous post. Be sure to grease/lube the suspension linkage bearings (including shock top/bottom) at a minimum once a year. keep an eye on the fork seals, can never lube the chain too much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
