Default need advice

Just got a 350X and Im wondering what all I should check to make sure it doesnt need serviced? What are some of the things you guys would check out?

When I do an oil change do I need to change the filter everytime? If so can you get the filters at local auto stores or do I have to go through a honda dealer? How often should I change oil?

What else should I check to see if it needs serviced?

If you just got the trike I would change the oil before you ride it. I do not know about your oil filter because mine has a cyntrifical(sp?) filter on it. The oil should be changed every 30 hours (if yours has a true oil filter it may me longer). I change mine after about 3 days of riding. Mine takes a little over a quart so money is not an issue. Check all your brake fluids. Clean and lube the chain, check tention. Check all tire pressures. Check bearings(rear axle, front axle, tripple tree). For maintence reasons you may want to check the fuel screen in the tank. Check air filter and all air tubing for water tightness. all I can think of

I agree with thrash, and if you got 20 bucks to waste, look up the manual for it, I got mine for $20, I typed in 1985 350x, and looked, and sure enough, some guy sells them [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] they tell you what to do every so often to the machine, to keep it checked up. its a bike saver [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
