Good Pre-Ride Prep

[honda400-4-ever]

What are some main things you want to check over on your first ride of the season??

is there gas:p :p :p :p
i always go over the whole bike and check bolts that might have loosened, check the brake fluids, adjust the chain.
just do a once over and make sure nothing catches you eye!

LUBE YOUR SWINGARM BOLT!
My machine gets all the plastics tore off, most of the tricky bolts that seize come out and get greased or anti seized (like the valve cover bolts and swingarm bolt, etc) plus I perform a good maintenance like valve adjust, air filter cleaned and oiled, plug change, oil change to meet climate change, and chain clean and lube. Its probably overkill and my wife is convinced I like working on them and drinking then I do riding them.
