Hey guys looking for some expertise here. I have never owned a new bike before till my 04 KX250 that's never been started and is sitting in my den (yes I brought it in the house) :thumb: . My question is what sort of things should I do to it before I take it out the first time? I need to add some oil to the gearbox and check the radiator fluid I know that. I also need to put some filter oil on the stock filter and some grease around the edges of it it's dry as a bone right now. The wheel bearings seem to be greased fairly well. The throttle has white lithium grease on it. I've read about someplace on a new bike that is lacking in grease but can't think where it is at. Also what's a reasonable way to break in a new motor. The manual seems reasonable to me right up the part where it says to tear the whole top end down, replace the ring and decarbon it :eek: I dont' think it needs a new ring after an hour. My buddy has always had new bikes and he just does the let it get warm and then let it cool off cycle while gradually increasing the run time. Thanks in advance for any words of wisdom.
