I just turned over 25k on my 2009. Aside from the regular service items in the manual what are some of the common items I should look at for wear?

Primary chain tensioner?
Cam chain tensioner?

????

Thanks

Your model year the tensioners should not be an issue. Replace the fuel filter. Have the connections checked on the trottle by wire at both ends. Close look at the wheel bearings.

I am going to be doing mine, 25K service, pretty close to the time I will also be replacing both tires, are the wheel bearings hand packable or permanently sealed. Other than obvious failure, what is a good bearing inspection criteria. If it's in the service manual I haven't checked that yet.

Thanks

The bearings are sealed.

If they roll smooth by hand their good.
