1. Coolant for the UK weather
2. Oil and Filter
3. Sparkplugs
4. Brake Fluid
5. Tyres (all seasons don't want to change)
6. Waterproof over suit (I want to wear my rain protection/air over my leather suit)
7. Brake pads
8. Headlight bulbs
9. Fuses
10. Air filter
11. Brake and clutch levers

Best waterproofs are a 2-piece made by Scott. Available from Urban Rider and Motolegends. Tried and tested by me.

Re: NC29 Coolant, Oil, Brake Fluid and etc.
See you ask a forum and get many different answers so you are still none the wiser as to which brand to buy. I must say if using different headlight bulbs don’t forget to put a relay inline as there isn’t one on the nc29 dipped beam but i think you asked that on a different topic
