As for blaming you, that won't work. You're too far away for a bullet to reach and she'd ultimately just turn her attention back to me.
Grease? I actually had to wipe grease off because there was excessive grease. lol No tuning needed, I just replaced the oil and out fresh 10w40 Valvoline motorcycle oil. Bolts looked like most of them had blue loctite already on them. I did go over most of them to make sure they were tight. I didn't adjust the valves as it ran to good. I will adjust them when i do the oil change which will be soon. I lubed up the stock chain which looked like is was already greased. I also cleaned up the rotors with brake cleaner. Brakes are way better than the hawk. good stopping power. I'm running stock sprockets. I'll be using it mostly for off-road but with the speed it is geared high enough if you plan on running 60-65 mph. Dropping 3 teeth on the rear would put it in the sweet spot for mostly highway.
