Congratulations! That bike is barely broke in! As a friendly bit of advice, I'd suggest replacing all fluids, unless the user has receipts for them: coolant; brakes; clutch; fork oil; engine oil and filter; oil in shocks; oil in rear end of shaft drive. Check the tires, especially the date code (look it up on the web, for specifics, and how to read it). If the tires are more than five years old, regardless of tread, and condition, they should be replaced -- you only have two wheels, and your life depends upon them functioning properly...

I'd also recommend running SeaFoam through the gas tank (1 oz. per gallon, or 7 oz. with a full tank -- 6.4 gallon capacity). This will absorb minor water in the fuel system, as well as dissolving minor varnish deposits within the fuel system -- cheap insurance. I run it every two months, or so, just to stay ahead of the game. I also use it to store the bike through the Winter months: preserves gasoline for up to 24 months. Cheers!
