Background:
My son is 11 and a new rider. His bike, '88 KDX80, is at the shop for repairs. Purchased knowing it didn't run. I'm 43 and a new rider. We're gonna learn together. Picked up my '88 KDX200 last night. Starts easily and stops okay. First and second gear work before I run out of driveway. That's all I know. Neither of the bikes has a manual.
Question:
After I buy the manuals and do the stuff in it. What would you recommend I inspect or replace w/o hesitation ? There must be a list of stuff you should do to a used bike that one doesn't do to a new bike, like break in period ?
