The maint schedule calls for *Inspection* at 8K. Check both front & rear brake reservoirs. If you brake fluid is clear-ish & still retaining that orig color, then you're prob ok. However, if the fluid is dark & has any debris, flush & replace.

-brake pad wear- how to check?
You manual shows how to check for wear - section 3-21. If these are your orig pads, they may need replacement.

-Brake system
See above for recommendations. Replace fluids as necessary. Be sure to check your hoses, pads, rotors, as necessary.

-Brake light switch
Is there a prob? Does it work?

-headlight aim
Your manual shows how to adjust.

-clutch
Assuming you are keeping you oil changed & at proper levels, your clutch will prob be ok.

-steering head bearings
Inspect (as manual calls for). Unless your bike has been stunted or mistreated, the steering head bearings are most likely ok.

-suspension
What's the question? Check to see if your bike's suspension settings are orig settings. You can have your suspension set to your body type & riding style. I recommend having a suspension setup specialist do this for you.

Check your fork seals for leakage. If they are leaking, you'll need to replace your oil & dust seals. This isn't rocket-science if you have the proper tools.

I know this is a lot to ask but I know you guys on here are crazy good at mechanic work on our bikes and your all good at answering questions to help a newer rider! Thanks in advance
