Ok, so while trying to extend my book’s maintenance schedule since I am beyond the owner’s manual due to the miles I’ve got (Just about 19,000) I discovered that I had a couple of things that needed to be done (every 2 years it says).

• Brake Fluid (brake lever fluid is how I think about it).
• Clutch Fluid (same deal, affects the levers ability to function)
• Engine Coolant
