Welcome, and it's a great bike, that was made unchanged for 19 years. Parts are common and cheap, and maintenance is simple, and easy compared to other bikes.
The best bang for your bucks is upgrading your suspension, which is easily done, and cheap as well.
And on my standard greeting,
Welcome, here are just a few things to think about,
1.Get trained and licensed
MSF Courses
2.
ALWAYS Wear protective gear --
ATGATT All The Gear, All The Time -- including a helmet manufactured to the standards set by a government agency.
3.
ALWAYS Ride unimpaired by alcohol or other drugs
4.
ALWAYS Ride within your own skill limits and road conditions.
5.Be a lifelong learner by taking refresher rider courses, and advanced rider course
