I just turned 600 miles on the Speedo and its time for the first service. I change the oil and filter. Lube the chain and check the slack. Went though the fastener to make sure they are tight. Is there any thing that I am missing for the first maintenance?

 

grease the steering head, swingarm, suspension and wheelbearings

 

Check all the spokes.

 

Oh and welcome to the site, how did you sneak in here without a welcome to the madness thread?

 

+1 on the greasing, especially if you ride off road.

 

Is a big job to grease the steering head bearing? Are the wheel bearing cartrage style? I never owned a motorcycle in the past long enuf to do any work on them. So pardon my ignorace.

 

Steering head, yes, if ya never done it before.......wheel bearings are sealed, just grease the outside, shaft and linkage.Look up how to instructions onthe forum...no problem.

Don't worry about it now and ride the bike....you can address this next oil change.
