As ive posted in the past I just recently bought my 2003 TBA. It has 900 miles on it and has essentially just been sitting in the previous owners garage for 6 years. The tires are still in good shape so I dont need to replace those.
What else should really be done and in order of importance?
This is my first bike and I'm a complete beginner so bare with me on some of these questions. For the oil change I want to use the correct oil. I want to be able to ride the bike ASAP since the months to ride are disappearing pretty quickly, so I was wondering what a good oil to use is and where I could buy it in Michigan? If no one knows of anywhere in Michigan could someone PLEASE provide a link to a site that sells the oil? I will probably need brake fluid too.
If there is anything else you guys can think of that I can do inexpensively before I take her out for a week or two let me know (In three weeks I get a nice refund from school that I can buy a new battery and a do some more maintenance, for now I just want to make it safe and make sure I don't do any damage.
Any recommendations are greatly appreciated!
Also, I read in my manual that there is some sort of special tool to do oil changes with, I dont have any tool kit or accessories that were given to me when I purchased the bike, will my mechanic run into a lot of problems?
