Just a genral all over check.

All depends on what the last owner did.....!

I would start with a complete fluid change.

Coolant, oil, brake fluid etc

Check the valve clearance and adjust as required.

Check the rear hub and swingarm for play.

Also i suggest removing the rear wheel and giving it a good coat of copper grease on the hub.
