Never ride faster than your guardian angel can fly

Service history, sound of it on start up, idling, etc check rear suspension for state of the shock and linkages, state of the swingarm bearings, check headset for tightspots or lumpiness when turning etc, state of the brake discs, whether it's had any mods done and mods removed, etc etc etc check it rigourously for damage from being dropped off the sidestand, especially the nosecone frame for any obvious misalignment...
etc, etc
