You need to change you clutch fluid often, like pretty much every 1000 pulls, and its a good idea to change your rear bulb oil and that pesky turn signal oil as well as the switch and headlight oil (they all wear together) as well as your radiator over flow fluids all at the same time. Also the brake lever lube and disc lube need to be swapped out every other time you do this. And dont forget filters for these too.
I can take care of all this for like $1000 - yea I know I work cheap ...
Cool.

Don't forget to keep those rotors lubed.

**DISCLAIMER**  That was a joke.  Don't lube your rotors.

Don't mind these jokers too much. Pick up a book on basic car/bike stuff and read it, ask questions.

Yeah I actually found it strange that there was no seperate tranny lube, being as I spent most of my time wrenching on big Chevy's.
