    Park it across the street, on that little side street.

    I didn't know if you wanted to use flash-tune on it and I was going to bring my interface if you wanted it flash. Look below for what you can do and go to the R6 forum for the map you want to use. I'm just offering if you don't have it flashed already. I can use a Pcv map as well.

    I take it you've never been there. its a steep driveway. we can push the bike up from the side street.

    and you gotta do the rest of the races. at least one of them. I think you're 3rd or 4th in one of the MWs still

    edit: 4th in MWSB you gotta try to take third back from me

    Pssh Brett... I was having captain and cokes at Degsy's since before you were born! (or at least before you were trackdaying/racing)

    And unless you're paying for my race entires, tires, and gas... it's not happening

    That was when I started too, actually. Degsy helped me on my first track day and got my knee down in the bowl.

    Chris I just wanna say shit happens man but think of the bigger and better picture.
    I'm sure you have your reasons and I'm sure they are worth it. Iv seen you race and ride and I hope you keep it in your future to come back.

    And on that note I won't make it due to work restorations at the "class"

    Degsy,

    I have to back out of this. A family event came up that I have to attend. Feel free to release my spot to someone else that may be interested in going. I did not submit payment yet so we don't have to worry about a refund.

    Here's the list of attendees (not including helpers)

    Basic:
    Novice
    Daisha –2006 ninja 250
    Ivan – pontifex
    Nitin – Karate.snoopy
    Martin – 7upyours
    Rick – REKS95 plus valves

    Advanced:

    Billy – Wants to practice engine work

    Alyssa – straynut
    Jeff – IMStuner PLEASE bring Ohlins stuff to mount!! 2008-R1
    Shawn – Fineout
    Tom – Bstnsboy
    RDSbusa. Will catch up basic stuff while in advanced.

    Date is August 3rd!!!

    Please paypal me your donation (see 1st post of thread for suggested amounts) to dasinclair@verizon.net asap. I will order the JIS screwdriver sets.

    The bike lift I have will be used for the basic class. They will cycle bikes through after we facilitate the first one or two, you guys will get lots of practice with different bikes.

    Jeff, are you bringing your Ohlins stuff to install? If so, we can cover the chassis stuff on your bike later in the day on the lift.

    Let me know if your name isnt here and you think it should be or if you cannot make it.

    Also, let me know of any dietary requirements. Otherwise, it will be steak, chicken, hot dogs etc and a big bowl of salad.

    derek

    Sounds good to me. Since I spontaneously combust in direct sunlight, I will probably skip the pool and hide in the shade

    Could some one bring a Morgan Carbtune and show me how to sync the Throttle bodies on my 4 cylinder bike (FZ6)?

    Re: Basic Motorcycle servicing and maintenance day.

    Last (serious... I hope) post said 9:30-10? Is that still good, Degsy? Woohoo, I'm looking forward to this! (and margaritas :9) imstuner and pontifex, are you still riding down from Waltham? Where are you planning to leave from and when? I think Scottie will probably be driving since he's bringing a bunch of tools and stuff.

    Re: Basic Motorcycle servicing and maintenance day.

    I'm depended on my girlfriend right now. She is going to be lugging my rims over with tires to be mounted. But she is also going to the cape right after she drop off the stuff at Derek's. I was planning to ride along with her unless I can find one of my friends to drop off the rims and tires. I'm riding down from Waltham and planning to leave around 8:15, since my girlfriend is not a fast driver.
