How many miles are on the bike? Were you given any  maintenance records from the previous owner? An oil change would be a good start, just to be on the safe side.

If you don't have any maintenance history on the bike, it's always good to have it gone through by a competent mechanic before you do any riding.

Thats alot of miles. I would look over the bike as well as prevoisly mentioned. Look at the tires to make sure they are not showing threads and look at your brake fluid levels. If you don't know anything about bikes take it to a shop and have them look it over for problems.
