    Bike Maintenance Advice

    I just changed oil and oil filter of my FXR150 and i regularly check tyre pressures.

    Is there any more maintenance things i need to do for a bike like mine?

    Check, adjust, lube chain.
    Lube and check cables
    Check brake pads/shoes for wear replace as required, wipe dust from brake drums
    Spark plug once in a while
    Grease gun on the grease points
    Oil can on clevis linkages and such like
    Check hydraulic fluids, change every couple of years.
    Check spoke tension if you have wire spoke wheels
    Grease steering head bearings
    Check and change/top up fork oil
    Points , if you still have 'em
    Decoke exhaust on two strokes
    Air filter change or reoil

    That's about all that come to mind for a regular check. Bound to overlooked some.

    Air filter is fairly important and easy to do. I think its under the gas tank on FXRs.
