    I tried to conclude everything a little bit :)
    1. Get a Owner manual
    2. Before each ride - Inspection Tired
    - Cracks
    - Nails
    - Holes
    Replace the tires!
    Don't use fix-a-flat
    Don't use plug the tire
    3. Check Tire Pressure
    - Differs per bike
    - Differs riding solo or passenger
    4. Threads
    Penny - If you see full head of Abraham Lincoln - Time to replace
    Check the age of them. On the side in 01(the first week of)/17 (2017)
    8 - 10 years old > Replace them.
    Below that > Check if thread is deep enough and no cracks.
    5. Oil Changes
    Change it every season (year)
    Replace oil filter when changing oil.
    Remove gasket on oil filter, don't double gasket in case of oil leak.
    What oil? > Manual or do some research
    When changing > Motor on level surface and turned OFF. After running let it sit 10 minutes.
    Sight glass > Somewhere between bottom and top line
    Dipstick > Somewhere between bottom and top line as well
    6. Air filter
    Inspect 3 times per year for slits, tears, cracks > Replace it.
    Clean it every year
    Paper filter cannot be reused.
    Cloth filter can be cleaned and reused.
    7. Chains
    Check if the sprockets are the same height
    8. Adjusting the Chain
    Too lose = bad (wear out sprockets)
    Too tight = bad (snapping)
    Measure the "bounce" should be an inch.
    Chain blocks for adjusting the chain.
    9. Cleaning Chain
    Clean your chain every 800 to 1000 miles (1287 KM to 1609 KM)
    Clean it with Kerosene and a special brush or a toothbrush.
    Make sure your cleaner doesn't kill you chain (in case of rubbers)
    Upkeeping the chain will save you money in the long run.
    10. Brakes
    Brakes reservoirs > Dark in color? Replace it.
    Be really careful. Brake fluid will destroy everything it touches.
    Check break pads > Before Metal touch on Metal
    Check pressure of breaks. Don't need to go to far back.
    11. Battery
    Get a battery tender > For when not riding in the winter.
    Save money and battery in the long run.
    12. Throttle cables maintenance
    some throttle cables you can lubricate others you can
    your throttle cable is not snapping back fast = bad
    Make sure it's not pinched.
    make sure it's lubricated.
    13. Lights
    Make sure they all work.
    - Front, back, brake, turns, and horn.

    Hey man, just seeing this video. Your content is unlike any other bike content I’ve seen, it’s amazing! This video was so helpful!! I’m a new rider and looking to get my first bike soon. One question I had was how OFTEN are you supposed to check these things? Before every ride? Once a week? Once a Month? How often are you supposed to just do a routine check on all of this? I feel like the more you’re on top of all this frequently, the more it’ll just help you, your bike’s longevity, and your wallet in the long run. Just subscribed, thanks for all your videos!

    I would love it if you did a video on motorcycle gear. Like you did with the exhaust video! Pricing vs quality of the gear. Especially for new riders to be safe and get the moneys worth. I’ve seen some huge variations in pricing for helmets and it’s hard to tell the difference for me being new. Still doing my research before I buy.
