These guys are the best, great replies. I too would say that the cables need WD40, chain needs loads of good lube and bike needs some miles so that she frees up. Chain may even need to be replaced. I would use some Redex or STP in the tank too. To be honest it needs oil and filter too and use a good oil (Castrol or similar) and dealers are often full of **** so even if they promise on the bible that they did it, I would change oil and filter myself without delay.
