Along with everything said below, you'll also want to check to make sure that everything in the drive train is aligned correctly (this assumes you're using sprockets and chain). You'd also want to make sure that the chain is tensioned enough but not too much (there should be some play in the chain). Also, just the run the drive train under load. Put some weights on it and just run it. See what happens. If something breaks, it's going to need to be fixed. Let your drivers get some training on it.

Matt who wonders how he's remotely qualified to give advice......
