The stock tires wore out fairly quickly but that's all I've had to do to it outside of oil change, swingarm grease, and chain adjustments A worthwhile tech tip: There is material available in some auto parts stores called "silicone dielectric grease." This stuff is a goop which can be put onto connector contacts which then seals over the top of the metal-to-metal connection. It prevents corrosion and intermittent contact. I highly recommend it for bikes since their wiring tends to be exposed to moisture fairly frequently. Cars can use it too if you want to take the time to do it.
