Manual override

I just realised, somewhat belatedly, that my Vixen didn't come with any kind of user manual.

One trip to Halfords later and I buy the 'Chinese (Taiwanese & Korean) 125cc Motorcycles, Four-stroke single and twin cylinder engines' Haynes Service and Repair Manual, for about £16.  The back says that amongst the applicable models is a Lexmoto HT125-8 Vixen.

I figure that a mini-toolkit for my backpack will also come in handy.

Some reading to be done...

    How often do you go round the bike and check all the bolts etc

  2. It took it to a friend after a few months for a 'checkup' and he said nothing needed doing, everything was fine. He said these bikes need little maintenance and go forever, but tend to corrode if you don't treat it with something like WD40 in the wet. I do a basic check round every few weeks though, would be more if I rode it more frequently I think.
