I recently bought a 1994 Suzuki Intruder 800, what kind of routine maintenance should I be doing?

I recently bought a 1994 Suzuki Intruder 800. This is my first bike. What kind of routine maintenance should I be doing on it? Anything from checking the oil to tire pressure. Also I think it has hydraulic fluid in the clutch and break instead of cables, is that possible? And if so do I need to do anything with that? It also has a shaft drive, anything special I need to do with that?

If you don’t already know, you shouldn’t have bought it. Sell it, quick.

nice bike, sounds like you know whats up. change oil and tranny juice right away. new plugs and air filter right away so you know where your at. look in the service manual or on-line for rear end specs and it would be good to change it right away so you know its fresh. battery you can wait till it dies or load test it to see if its good. maybe check the water level in the battery. I don’t think the bike is liquid cooled but if ti is check the coolant level and use a hydrometer to make sure you got a good mixture of coolant and water. check tire pressure, the side of the tires say how much air they need. it is also nice to grease all the bearings but you almost have to take the bike all apart. ride safe helmets are nice too

change the 90 weight in the driveshaft twice a year. motor oil about every 5000 miles you have brake fluid and if you have a hydraulic clutch change fluid once a year.

the battery is in a rough place to get too on ur bike, clean and tighten the battery terminals
the clutch and the brake both use DOT4 brake fluid, the clutch is a hyd clutch cause it has no cable, it works under hyd pressure the same way the brakes work
another thing I want you to do is remove the seat and the gas tank and unplug all the connectors you can find on the wiring harness check for and clean any corriosion and apply generous amounts of Di-Electric Grease inside the connectors on the terminals and plug them back in untill the grease ooooozzes out.
change the oil every 3K to 5K miles, clean the air filter and remove the driveshaft and lube both ends of the splines with a grease with high moly, also the rear differential uses gear oil, check and tighten the wheel spokes, check tire pressure, tighten and check all nuts and bolts with carefull attention to the bolts and nuts that hold the exhaust to the frame, they always come loose cause of the heat, don’t want ur exhaust pipes falling off when ur going down the road at 60 mph

Why does Joe B only have advice for foreign bikes, but does nothing but bash Harleys? Why not give helpful advice to any biker in need?

ALL bikes need preventive maintenance, but in Joe B’s world if a harley rider ask for help he gets nothing but insults.

Tire pressure and oil levels are two very important items to be checked freqently.
