I do Properly maintain my 4-wheeler. Before I ride my 4-wheeler, I look at the chain to see if it needs to be tightend and if it needs to be greased. Then, I check my oil to see if I need to add any. After that, I look to see if my tires need to be aired up. I even check the oil in my transmission. Sometimes I check the brake pads to see how they are. I guess i need to do that more often.
