I always double check the gap on plugs. Although plugs come pre-gapped, if they have been hit on the end the gap could be changed.

Brake pads/rotors/hoses Brake fluid - level, hows it look. If it looks dark it most likely old and good flush and replace won't hurt. Tires - nicks, cuts, wear pattern, sidewall cracking Overall fluid leaks - shouldn't be any and indicates potential problems Cables - easy to move, smooth return, no hang ups, frays at the pivot points Good way to get to know your ride.
