Due to some threads we've had on here lately i will now give you the most important advice:

Learn how to measure the oil level and check the oil regularly!
Just because it's a little bike doesn't mean it will get through oil any slower, in fact the fact that it's a little bike means it will spend more time revving near the limit and will burn oil quicker. If it runs too low the first you'll know about it is when it starts running badly. Adding more oil at that stage is too late, the damage is done and it will stay running badly until a LOT of money is spent on it.

Also check the chain tension regularly and adjust as neccisary. We get quite a few threads on here about odd noises, clutch and gears acting odd etc that turn out to be a chain that's not been adjusted in ages.
