Let me know when you plan on heading down. I'll slab it with ya.

Yo I definitely am in. Suspension and oil for sure. Will call to firm up.

Smarmy · 08-17-2012, 05:11 PM

Maybe this will motivate me to finally get the PCV and QS put on my track bike that's been sitting in the box in the garage for the last couple weeks, and then get a tune!

Will give you a call to set up.

If I bring the brake pads/shoes, does someone want to help me change my front (disc) and rear (drum) brakes? I've never done it and would love to learn.

Flaerion · 08-18-2012, 04:29 PM

I also need to do a front end brake refurb job on my SV, though all I need are tools/stand, pretty sure I can manage the 'doing' part.

Any luck on this by chance?

S1KRR · 08-20-2012, 10:15 AM

PM sent to Nels for PCV install and tune.

Discs are really easy. Never done drums though. Make sure you clean your calipers and pistons too while you have them off.

Not sure what you'd need the stand for but I have tools if you're close.

I'm actually out for a while until I can get the correct parts. The genius at Bellevue Kawi just wouldn't listen after I explained for 20 minutes that my bike uses 2 sets of unique pads, one set per side. Yeah... that message was NOT heard. yeah, of course you're right parts counter person, you haven't owned it for 4 years and done a few brake jobs on it, what do I know.

MOTOGPwannabe · 08-20-2012, 04:43 PM

newb and pretty broke...but will try my damnedest to be there just to learn

...was TRYING to support a local business. You better believe the internet will be involved with the next set.

Hey Everyone!
It's that time again.
It's VERY important for scheduling purposes that you guys call me before the meet to get penciled in. This is to reduce the waiting times. I have made some adjustments on my end to minimize any long waiting and less frustration from customers. So please please PLEASE call me beforehand so I can get a schedule going.
I'll post up a schedule soon of the slots still available.

See you there!

You're absolutely welcome to come. No better way than to meet some fellow forum members.

Exactly what Dan said! This is a free event for anyone to come down, hang out, meet new people and learn about their bikes! Only two days away, can't wait!

Andre 1000 · 08-24-2012, 08:53 AM

I'll be coming with about 5 guys maybe. Cant wait.
