I'll be dere,eh? Depending on work projects, Sooze should be with me as well.

For the FJR, we're looking at:

* Wilburs shock install.

* CCT

* Iridiums

* Admore lights

I'll be bringing a valve shim kit, but prolly won't be doing a valve adjust on my bike this time.

Be there or be a scruffy-lookin' sheep herder.

 
I'll be there, but I won't be affecting your sleeping arrangements or beer allowance. Food is another story...
Are there any tools that might be in high demand such that a few extras would be nice (Bust; I know you're a tool and in high demand, but that's not what I'm talking about)?
I'll be working on Geek's bike mostly, the primary project is the CCT, and I've got tools for that, but if you have somethin' special that gets to those CCT bolts.... I'm also assuming Bust has a selection of other tools. I'm bringing torque wrenches and a CarbTune. Happy to help out with other items.

 
What time is this shindig startin? :crazy: ...I should be able to make it there by around 10:30 saturday mornin :cigar: :drinks:

I should be there sometime between 9:00 and 10:00.

As for what time are we starting? Well, I guess that depends on if Bust has "altitude sickness" again or not...

Don't forget Geek, it also could be his time of the month, for the Red Witch to arrive. Just give him two Midol, a cool washcloth on his forehead and a copy of Vogue or Oprah magazine!

The *******!

Or, as Petey would say: "Der Jack Wagen"!!!

Oh yeah.. Keep proddin' ol' petey.

Ya know, he's gonna see Andy at NAFO.. I wonder if he'll boot his *** again? :lol:

:jester:

 
I am planning on getting there around 1PM, as I have a family obligation before then. Don't really need any updates to my 05 FJR, but advice and friendship is always great!

Nobody suffered any ill effects that I know of..

Andy was looking like maybe the altitude might possibly bother him so we had him bunk in the basement.. Lower altitude ya know.

Yamafitter "Bill" arrived Friday afternoon,he and I managed to kill off a liter of The Crown and a Dozen beers. So Saturday morning was somewhat blurry :blink:

Not bad mind ya as we ate well and took several hours with that tomfoolery..

Just a few pictures from yesterdays festivity's. I'm sure Bill, Andy, and Joe will post up some later..

Half of Kevin here, Extrememarine,FlyingJ,El Toro Joe, and useless pickles doing the work..

That guy has the patience of a saint..

FlyingJ, the Geek, an Wayne.. Does Wanye look a little concerned or is it just me? I beleive this is the start of the cct swap out.

Yzerman19 was fecking awesome! Had he not shown up Andy would have had to move in.. Yeah me an' Andy were clueless.

I don't think this needs a caption...

El Toro Joe and Yamafitter and a dog....

Yamafitter .. I think he was cussing his bike for forgetting to reinstall the fuel line.. We wondered why it didn't want to start.

Bill's bike and equipment don't cooperate too well. He has to turn everything on...

We managed a cct change out, Shock install, a couple TBS's, Plugs and oil change.

The weather wasn't very nice as several braved frog stranglers to get here, but I'd have to deem it a rousing success!

Thanks to all that showed up.. See ya in the spring when we attempt to really screw Andy with a valve check!

OK, suck-holes - I put all my pictures and whatnot into a thread over in Ride Reports.
I am confused as hell. According to the NHL, the Detroit Red Wings are in the Central Division. WTF is this thread doing in the Mid-West. Then again, all my photos from Tech Day are in the WCR section which wasn't even in the same country so I guess I should just shut up. :wacko:

...and it didn't occur to either of you to include a link to the other threads with your pictures...

I'm too lazy to look for them :)
