Moved up one week because apparently, we have a bunch of romantic types on this site.

😁

Its been a while since we had a proper tech day, with the big project now out of the shop have a proper space to do this if people are interested.

Sat Feb 22th

Its usual location in Escondido.

Typical disclaimers apply.

  • Responsible for disposing of tires if you do a swap - 8 Ball is right down the road and you can take them there
  • oil changes - bring your own oil, disposal of old oil will be taken care of for you
  • Work to be performed - typically we only have a few hours so keep that in mind when you decide on what you want done, not enough time to do a valve check on a KTM 950 for example

I will have almost any tool needed to do general maint on most models of bikes, if something special or specific to you then bring that tool with.
Also have a tig welder so minor repairs to skidplates etc are also available to those in need.

I do not charge for any work performed, the recipient is asked to donate to the website as compensation commiserate with what they feel the work done is worth.

The BBQ will be available and if enough people are interested we will do either dogs and burgers (donation collected to cover cost of food via the honesty jar, or @KTMrad pocket which ever one is gotten too first)

It’s my anniversary, I will see if the wife thinks this is where we should go for the celebration.  
 

She still surprises me but I’m dubious about her response.

Darn, I'd like to join to get some help with my rfs, but that's valentine's day weekend. The boss probably won't allow it. Have fun! If a reschedule does happen, March 1 weekend is clear for me.

I did not think of the Valentine's weekend factor, then we can bump this up a week.

Just bumping this as we have not gotten any takers other than the usual suspects.

 

 

 

Please RSVP so we can have a head count, gates will be open regardless.
Just more hotdogs for the rest of us I guess.

Wait, the parts should be in there, just not in this condition and location.

I was about to say something similar.  
Unfortunately, it’s a complete engine disassembly to replace that bearing.  With almost 50,000 miles on the engine it probably makes sense to replace lots of other parts.
