    Thanks, Degsy! Paypalling now. No dietary issues, that all sounds awesome.

    Billy – Wants to practice engine work

    Alyssa – straynut

    Shawn – Fineout
    Tom – Bstnsboy
    RDSbusa. Will catch up basic stuff while in advanced.

    Date is August 3rd!!!

    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
    Money sent and I don't need the screwdrivers. Thanks for hosting this Derek. I'm waiting on the for the rear shock to come in and I'm going get the front shocks re-valve with RaceTech so I won't be doing the front forks on that day.

    Anyone riding down from Waltham area? We could ride down together.

    Re: Basic Motorcycle servicing and maintenance day.

    Hi Degs, I ride a FZ6 which has gotten buzzier than usual, I think the TB sync might be in order. I have never attempted this, would it be possible for you to accommodate this in the 'Basic' schedule?
    Paypal payment completed.

    Shock came in and can't decided if I want to get the FGRT 801 forks or re-valve the forks. So we can at least do the rear and maybe front forks install if I pull the trigger today.

    he forgot to mention that we're now killing 2 birds with one stone and instead of doing the valve check on that motor on the stand we're now doing it on my bike. should still be pretty easy to see everything after everything on top of the motor is off which is a pretty simply procedure.

    gonna be nice to meet some new faces too.

    No food allergies for me. Want me to bring anything? I might just make some cookies or puppy chow.
    I'll PayPal tomorrow/Saturday.
    I bought a new exhaust system for my bike (muzzys, not a slip on), any chance I could bring this along and get some helping swapping them out? Not sure if this is something on the to do list.
    I am interested in the screwdrivers as well.

    are you planning on riding down? if so I can help bring parts/food/anything else you need. only problem is if you are going for the beginner stuff there's no way in hell I will be up early enough to get down there then. so you could either drop the stuff off at my house the day before or that morning or I could go pick it up later for you.

    I am planning on riding down, I will be there for the beginner class. I honestly have no idea how I planned on getting everything there! What time are you planning on heading down? I can drop things off in advance if need be.
