    Winterizing Day...

    Dan, Derek and myself are offering a 'winterizing day' for newer riders (and maybe some not so newer riders). It'll happen in the latter part of October, most likely on a Saturday. Location will be up at my place. Cost will be $20 a person, and that'll cover lunch, antifreeze - if needed - and disposal fees for dumping oil and/or coolant. We're gonna limit this to the first 10 people that speak up...

    We'll cover oil & filter changes, cleaning and oiling air filters, bleeding hydraulics, checking plugs, replacing antifreeze if needed, how to keep your battery stored and charged, among other things. We'll also cover how to prep your bike's appearance and finish for it's long winter nap...

    All you need to bring is $20, your choice of oil & filter, the proper DOT rated brake fluid for your bike, your owners or repair manual (preferably a repair manual, but the owners manual will work too), plugs if you prefer to change 'em, and any other materials you think you may need. I'll pick up a coupla gallons of aluminum safe antifreeze and DISTILLED water as those items may be a bit much for peeps to carry on the bikes...

    Don't worry about riding home after we do this. It won't effect anything we're gonna do that day. It won't even disturb anything if you ride for a coupla weeks after this...

    We're gonna hammer out a date soon so that if there's any interest, we can get a sign up going...

    So, is there any interest?

    Maintenance Day/Winterizing Day...

    3 reasons I'm showing:

    1) I have the best intentions around Oct as far as taking care of my baby, but in reality I procrastinate and usually end up doing it right before Xmas, freezin my you know whats off. And then not doing half of what I should. A get together could help my planning problem!

    2) Others will be there to help, pick up tips maybe you didn't know like using an air compressor with an inflation needle tip to blow out sand from the Katana's deep spark plug wells.
    I will have my race trailer, cmpressor, and all tools at this.

    3) we will be helping our bikes, socializing with friends, having fun, listen to Derek's silly accent, and help support the site all at the same time.

    I hope you can make it, help your bike, have a ball!

    It'd be well worth it for you. In the course of gaining knowledge of experienced streetbike owners, you'd also be learning some simple, basic maintenance procedures you could do on your own in the future. Thus saving you quite a bit of $$ in the long run...

    I'm guessing at this point that it'll be the weekend of the 25th. If we do it ON the 25th, we'll still have that extra little bit of sunlight so the southerners can have SOME warmth on the way home...

    Simple answer to that? Don't show up!

    Seriously, I'm not interested in who CAN'T or WON'T make it. I'm looking to get people to this that would otherwise be unsure of what to do...

    Okay. Just to be clear, 'cuz summa you don't seem to understand the concept here. I DON'T CARE IF YOU CAN'T OR WON'T OR DON'T DO THIS. This is for the relatively new to the sport folks that may WANT TO DO THIS and would otherwise maybe pay a stealership for this service...

    Can we keep this somewhat on course, please...

    Maybe we should make this more of a maintenance day for the newer riders?

    I will attend. Always nice to learn from new people. Maybe I will have the 954 up and running or we can figure out my problem with the ZX-11.
