Go for a poo before you ride it. Cheap and cheerful.

there isnt much to change as the kit is reasonable robust stuff,
Id change the frame and forks and get something lighter with the same travel.

Got to agree with Sancho (and Jamie!) - the bike is what it is (looks pretty nice spec) - just get out - ride more and get fitter.
