Every ride: Breaks, chain tension, oil level.
Every week: Air filter, check for snug fit of the battery, air box, plastic, and exhaust. (Just shake it once. That'll do it.)
Every month: Break pad thickness, rear break lever, break fluid level and color, spark plug color. Inspect motor for oil leaks. Lift front end off the ground and check for wobble in the front wheels. Lift rear end off the ground and check for wobble on the axel (worn carrier bearings). Also check for wobbling wheels (bent axel or lug nut coming loose.)

wobbling wheels could also mean a bent wheel too
