Just a few

Too much "friction" on grips and pegs do not allow riders to move "effortlessly."
Be careful what you clean your seat(s) with, you don't want it too slick.
Watch your fork seals, if they leak on your rotors and then you ride, sure... it will burn off after the first couple of times hitting the brakes but it's destroying your pads.
Learn to lube your cables, friction is not good here.
