Eagle Mike's KLR Tech Day

Recommended Posts

Eagle Mike showed off his new shop in El Cajon on Saturday. About 20-25 showed up to swap and share stuff all KLR and Mike helping out with some good wrenching. I saw a frame bolt mod, valve adjust, new DoHickey installed and a few other things. AS always Mike puts on a great lunch with everyone donating a little to help out. I met three San Diego KLR riders that I gave info to the SDAR web site. There were riders from OC and Arizona too. Here are a few photos of the get together.

Kelly! Why did I not see you?

Attended the Eagle Mike mini tech day in El Cajon but didn't work on my bike--just socialized with fellow KLRistas and bought some EM goodies. Hey to Sal, JD, Matt, Chris and the others. Chuck and Mike were walking some KLR riders through a doohickey and valve check. As well as just being the super nice guys they are.nice.gif

I enjoyed hanging out and talking KLR stuff with some really cool guys there. Some from OC and the Inland Empire. cheers.gif

Sal gave me a deal on some tunes and helped me dial in my suspension (to 5 from 1 them back to 3...perfect).

Here are some photos.

Dan, don't know? I was there for coffee and donuts and left after lunch. Rode my 1993 KLR.

KLRs are special and unique bikes - full of strengths and fraught with a few weaknesses that have been Identified. With an inexpensive KLR and a couple tech days you will have a very reliable and capable machine. It may not be as nimble and sexy as many, however few are as faithful and dependable! Glad to see Left Coast KLRs and the tech days are still going strong.

Thanks for your help. You would t happen to know the hours of operation and or the phone number would you? Sorry should have asked before. Thanks in advance.

Just got Home from Eagle Mike's. He hooked me up with parts, knowledge and a new outlook on the Human race......Even if you dont have a KLR you gotta buy something from a guy who gives so much to the community. Everything I've heard is more than true about this Motorcycle rider supporter. I'll be going back soon.
