I've been thinking about maintaining my GSX250 for quite some time. I usually ride it to commute to work and follow a routine of changing the engine oil and oil filter every 3,000 kilometers, using 10W-40 semi-synthetic oil for the most hassle-free experience. I'm quite diligent with chain maintenance, applying chain lube every 500 kilometers and checking the tension at the same time. When washing the bike, avoid directly spraying water on the radiator fins to prevent dirt from clogging and affecting cooling. Check the tire pressure once a month, with 210 kPa for the front tire and 250 kPa for the rear tire being the safest. Replace the brake fluid every two years, and if there are scratches on the disc brake rotors, address them immediately. Before winter, remember to add fuel stabilizer and remove the battery for charging and storage. These basic tasks can be done by yourself, saving a lot on repair costs.
