The Basics?

Hi all, no urgency here, but I would like to know what sort of basic maintenance I should be doing to my bike when I get it tomorrow. It is a Honda NSR125RR as most know.

Cheers

Check all the fluid levels; front brake, rear brake, gearbox, water and two-stroke oil.

Check your chain and sprockets for wear and tightness along with your tyre pressures and tyre tread.

Also check that your brakes are functioning correctly and are not leaking any fluid at all.

Good luck and have fun. Thumbs Up
