60 000km (37280 miles) service advice

660R
So 60 000km now clocked and I havent touched a bolt on that motor even though its been ridden hard through some of the best of Africa. Motor is still going strong.

Advice please as to what I should check.

My thoughts-
Check rings (it is using a little oil now)
Check valve clearance (I have heard it change "tune" slightly
Check clutch
Check fuel pump filter

Any advice appreciated, thanks

For me, at that mileage, I'd add regreasing the swinging arm and suspension linkages plus headstock bearings. Probably time for some consumables like a new spark plug and air filter plus brake fluid.

Thanks Chalk, yes the bike is currently being stripped besides the front end. Recently fitted a pair of WP so all good in the front.

You are very welcome. I don't know if it's just me or you have fallen foul of the photobucket / 3rd party hosting problem as your attachment appears, to me at least, as a stock photobucket logo.
