I don't log in regularly, but do stop by on occasion. I was very surprised to see this thread resurrected! I doubt I still have the screen shots from the TPS signal, so I can't post them here, but there were momentary spikes above and below the signal voltage. I went to great lengths to...

I'd love one of those. Not that one though. Joe

Did exactly that to a snowmobiler once. He swerved to my side of the trail, I evaded to the right, and we still swiped sleds. He fell off his sled and was laying in the middle of the trail shaking violently. I rushed back to him thinking he was having a heart attack, or a seizure. It was...

I am taking your advice! -_-

It shouldn't make much difference if a platinum plug is firing from center to side, or vice versa. Both the center and side electrode have a small pad coated with platinum that keep them from eroding for a long time. That is, unless you gap them with a metal gapper and scrape the platinum off...

I love it! My job is 100% travel. As you roll up and down the east coast, you only have to drive 200 miles or so to hear the accent change a little, see the people change a little, and the food change a little... Joe

In my experience, every time my bike had a wobble with no hands on the bars, a new tire fixed it.

Thanks for coming Concourier. I was glad to have everyone over. If you get a chance, feel free to post some of the pics you took while you were there. I didn't take any myself. I'd gladly host another Tech Day. They're not too hard to put together. Maybe I could even buy a coffee pot and...

Good to hear that the forks didn't fly up and swat you. At least he we recent pics of you in case they did! :) Joe

Thanks for stopping by, Mark. Glad to meet you. Joe

It was 40 degrees at 8am. gonna be a frosty ride for anyone that shows up today. Not a cloud in the sky though.

You are welcome to bring whatever you'd like. No problem at all. My wife had a change of plans, and will be home now. That's good news for us, because I'm a terrible host...and we'll eat WAY better with her home. :) Joe

I picked up some hot dogs and burgers to grill, and I'll get some munchies and soft drinks. If there are any special requests, let me know. Joe

I have cleaned the fork seals on my KTM several time with a thin geeler gauge. Works every time. My wife wont be there. She will he away all weekend visiting a friend. joe

We should be OK. I don't think there will be too many people wrenching. This Tech Day may be more social than anything. I have a newly acquired VW to mess with, and I think a friend of mine is stopping over with a transmission he is getting started on. Joe

You wont need to bring a jack, or even tools, but you are welcome to bring anything you would like. I know that i always like to use my own tools when working, so i understand if you want touse your own. Joe

I got a few power outlets installed today, added another fluorescent light, cleaned the parts washer and added 40 gallons of fresh solvent. Unfortunately the driveway to the garage won't be finished by next week, but I don't think it will kill anyone to drive on a little grass to get inside. Joe

From the Factory Manual on my 08: Recommended oil Ohlins R & T43 (ACC-RT43F-00-00) Quantity 696.0 cm³ (23.53 US oz) (24.55 Imp.oz) Joe

I think 10 or so would be great. that will give everyone time to get there, and give us plenty of time to get some work done. I'll be ready before then though. Joe

I believe I have PM'd everyone my address that is coming. If I missed you, let me know. Joe
