    Hi n welcome :) other than the dealer services as req its a good idea to lube the rear chain regularly and clean it when the lube/dirt builds up to much and keep an eye on levels :)

    Welcome and great choice, but going by the weather charts will be a week or two before you use it?

    Excellent mate, thanks for the welcome. Safety is paramount. I've a budding young family to look after. Wanted to get a bike for some time but worked overseas too much. Likely a blessing in disguise as i feel i've grown a little since my beach thrashing quad / motox days :grinning:. Jokes aside I'm looking forward to learning and progressing at my own pace on this lovely machine.
