    I'd be in for some sort of class to learn how to do maintenance on my bike. Also dont like to depend on anyone.

    Was thinking of running a couple of classes at my place in Taunton, MA. Everything from oil changes to motor teardowns/rebuilds. Small fee to cover refreshments and supplies. When is better? Week or weekend? Bear in mind I teach MSF sat and Sunday from 7am until about 4pm.

    Make a thread with votes for days, times, etc.
    I personally would come weekdays.
    I'd like to learn about tearing down forks and replacing fluids, seals, etc.

    I think I'm good with the basic maintenance. Forks and internal engine work is something I'm not familair with and would like to learn.

    Tearing down an engine is a little above "Simple Bike Maintenance". But I would be down with that too.

    Really only weekends work for me as I have every one off. I work M-F 7:30-5.

    I'm up for learning anything and everything, but I travel a lot... so Friday nights or Saturdays would work best for me.

    I've got an SV650 engine that's a great candidate for a teardown. Would love to learn how.

    Do you go down to BoMo solely to tea-bag bikes?

    Can't say I'm glad to own a bike that has touched your balls but I doubt I'm gonna care much once Derek and Rich get done with it!
