    I quite like and prefer living here thank you very much But that's not to say I agree with the nannystate bullshit of WOFs and whathaveyou.

    I know it's a scary concept here, but personal responsibility is a thing! If you kill yourself because your car is munted, nobodys too cut up about it. If you kill somebody else because your car is munted, you'll likely spend 10 years in prison with a hefty fine to match! You see the odd dodgy looking car, but by and large most cars are fairly well maintained.

    I just went through what I consider to be the 5000 k service for my bike.
    I did an oil/filter/o-ring change
    Scrubbed the drive chain and rear sprocket with kero and then lubed with chain oil
    Washed out the air filter
    What did I miss?

    Did you check brake disc and pad condition? What about the suspension? Tyres? Everything else?
