Just bought my pitbike (2nd hand)

[joey000]

Hi guys! just bought a 2nd hand pit bike (yeah i was a bit cautious about it aswell),
after finding what i believe to be a solid bike I thought i'd come to the experts to see what needs checking before i thrash it, its got about 5 - 6 hours on it at the moment, its a pit pro 125.

I think the things I need to do are -

change oil
run through a few tanks of fuel
carby just got tuned so thats sweet
make sure all the bolts are nice and tight etc

is that all? if anybody can suggest to me something that needs going over or checking before i take it out I would be much appreciative, this is my 2nd pitbike but this is the first time that im doing the right thing before i ride it -___-

dont forget to do valve clearances if you dont u will be back on here in a week or two saying it wont run or start 95% of problems are coz people forget to check valve clearances it should only take about 15mins good luck and have fun riding it
