Default Mechanics course assistance?

Hello to everyone

this is for the mechanics on here.. im currently doing my level 3 diploma in motorcycle mechanics at Accrington and Rossendale college, and i have a little presentation to do on Motorcycle safety checks, has anyone got any pointers or tips that could help me.

this could either be pre checks before working on the bike and then post checks before a customer lets say takes the bike after you worked on it if you get me.

cheers

Regarding tools,as an apprentice 50 years ago I had instilled into my brain that you always have the same number of tools at the end as when you began the job.Always clean them after using them and a neat and tidy tool box helps, as does a neat and tidy mind
Check your work area,keep it clean as possible and make sure that nothing has been dropped i.e small spring,washer or a little gasket, "O" ring-------sounds silly but the number of times I have caught somebody out by asking,What is that? is untrue
