I'm in...don't really have any maint needs...unless i get front SS lines by then, but highly doubtful. I'm mainly interested in getting my stock suspension dialed in and i don't dare touch it w/o someones know how.
Just let me know the date, i already know how to get there!

I can play!!!
First, the only person you have anything to prove to is yourself. Second, you can watch life with your nose pressed up against the glass. Or you can swing the doors open and step inside.
I'm game for sure!!!! Will have a couple of others with me as well if you don't mind.
Hey RYBO - what'll yer neighbors think when you got 40 bikes parked in your driveway?

I don't really need anything for the bike...but I might come just to chill.
Barn, if you wanna do oil and filters you can give Richard a call and just come down to my place one evening.

I rarely think of motorcycles without a little yearning. They are about moving, and humans, I think, yearn to move – it’s in our cells, in our desires. We quiet our babies with cyclic movement, and we quiet ourselves by going.

Gotcha. Well tell him to order me a K&N cold air induction for the 2.8 V6
(part #57-0515)
Only if he can get it for less than $120 including tax though. That's the least expensive I've found it online so far. Have him call me up for my payment info, if he can swing it.

Mel, Please also have him order the restrictor plate kit for the same engine. Barn just got his license back and we don't need him having the capability to go faster....
Barn....for the next couple of years, think

OK....so we know we want a tech day, now what do we want to learn about?
Post suggestions here and I'll change the poll later on.
So far:
1. Coolant change for track days
2. Oil change
3. Brake pads
4. Brake lines
5. Chain adjustment
6. Basic suspension set up
Keep adding to the list. If we actually do these things I don't think we'll be able to cover more than 10 topics. It would be great if people brought bikes that needed these jobs done so that we had "real world" application.
Don't know how n00b some people are, but what about changing an Air filter and or spark plugs?
This is a great idea, then maybe I would be able to work on my own bike rather than taking it to copow. I will be there, if I'm in town that weekend.

I gotta say I think it's a great idea and very generous for members to volunteer to share all this info. Thanks a ton!
Oh, how about adding 'chain removal and replacement' to 'chain adjustment'?

OK....poll edited.
I might be there. The big problem is that is the weekend of my and Sid's birthday. If I can get springs/cart emulators/etc for the SV front end, maybe I will run through the front forks to get things ready for PMI.
