Routine Maintenance

I acquired my 2001 Baghira as an insurance write off. Some parts off Ebay and a few hours work and I have it back on the road finished in a fetching mat black.
I have changed the oil and filter, the plug, and fitted new brake pads. It starts and runs fine.
Any thoughts on other maintenance I should do given that I have no idea of its past history?
Also anyone know if it is possible to get the gray lacquer for the engine casings. It has been down the road at some time, (the cause of the write off?) and the left side is scuffed.

Thanks

I had a Yamaha TW200 (girlfriends bike) it had seen its share of the ground. I had some Plasticote cast iron paint and It did an amazing job of matching the grey on the cases of that bike when I cleaned it up to sell it.
