Yes.
If you don't already have one, get an hour meter so you can set intervals for service.
What year and how many hours on the bike?

I'll take a guess you do not have a Factory Honda Service Manual for this bike. If you do have you looked at the maintenance schedule?

As much as you can. What kind of maintenance has the owner done? Is there a factory manual?

Well for starters its a 4 stroke and when you buy them it seems like there is always something wrong with them. Like Patrman said ask about the maintenance that has been done, Also ask if there is a factory servivce manuel so you will know what you are doing when you work on it.

20 Hours? On a high performance bike like that the oil should be changed every 3-4 times you ride it. Take the top end apart and check everything out, Probably need a new one.
