Bike tech day Escondido Pt II

Recommended Posts

Well last one was in july and figure with holidays over now might be the time for another one so puttimg.this out there for suggested weekend date.

Same rules as last time ill collect oil etc

We will have the grill going with and sdar donation jar set up (all of which goes to sdar)

Only think peeps are responsible for it taking their used tires home with them.cause i cant put them in my trash.

If needed stuff can be shiped to my house in advance and there are three bike shops accross the 78 from within 3 miles.

Thoughts?

Oh and friendly dogs always welcome.

Then maybe the last saturday in jan or first in feb to accomodate anyone needing to do something to their bikes prior to desert dash makes sense?

I currently don't have any maintenance items, but am always willing to assist anyone.  Valve adjusts?  Carb work?  Beer that needs to be drank?  I'm the guy!

I think 2/10 is going to have to be the date I’ll be out of town following weekend and then we have desert dash on the 24th

 

so what does the collective say?

Thank you for offering to host the Tech Day!

I'm in for 2/10.

I will have done my valve adjust and 1200 pushrod swap by then, but hope to do a brake and clutch fluid flush on the GS.  And put on a new front tire.  I've never actually done these things before even though they seem particularly simple to do.  It's always nice to have a brother looking over your shoulder the first time.

I think I'll change my 'tech' to installing QD's on the fuel lines, pulling the tank and installing new throttle cables/bowden box. So many tasks, so little time.

Or, just check the tire pressure and help draw down the beer stash.

I have done that before, it can be a real pita of a job, if that is your plan get here early cause you might be here for a while.

I close the doors at 4, anything left in the garage by default becomes mine.

Can I just pile all the pieces outside where your wife parks and come back for the next few weeks until done?

Tom, and Jim, wanna ride over there together from La Mesa? I have no idea where to go.  That's why I'm bringing beer.  So that someone makes sure I get to the right place.
