[SIZE=12pt]Count me in. I ordered the Gen II crash bars, sent to Garauld for paint but I should have them shortly. If I havent managed to install them before this meet I'll bring them.[/SIZE]

I am terrified of installing my new Audiovox CC and may run up from PDX if someone there is willing to hold my hand through this.

I got to figure mine out too.

 

[blufjr]

Maybe I will come up just to play with the NoMar. Remove and replace tires for fun. What about changing fork oil? Just thinking outloud.

 

[escapefjrtist]

Another great opportunity to work on other folks bikes...I love it. :lol: I'll give Hudson a shout and see what electrical components we're missing and then rummage through the drawers. Keep in mind that good quality wire and connectors can be purchased at West Marine, Boaters World, etc. Might be able to save a little freight.

See everyone in March.

Just changed mine (for the second time) last month. Bring the fluid and we can have it done in an hour or so.

A heads up if you think you want to change your stock plugs out.

Just changed my plugs (NGK IRIDIUM IX set of 4 spark plugs CR8EIX Stock nummber 4218) this winter and wanted everyone to know that this ebay guy is great (fast shipping).

Ebay name is apwonline or you can call him at (714) 890-1247.

Hey, this sounds fun. If the weather is nice, I''ll ride down to add moral support.... that and polish my ZX-14 chrome.

 

[2WheelTiger]

I'm in. I don't think I'll need to do anything, but a TBS would be nice.

 

[Barabus]

Did someone say PIZZA? I do not need any more farkles, but I will attend if I am in town and lend a helping hand. Its 50/50 whether or not I have a trip then.

Maybe they can work you in. I heard Bfehklar has a mandatory tire changing session scheduled.

:lol:

I'm having my front Avon Azaro shipped over to Bryan's. I really want to learn how to change tires (since I'm going to be eating up about 2-3 sets a season). We need someone to have their rear tired changed. I'll be purchasing my own machine soon.

[Niehart]

We also might think about poking some holes in your old tire and then patching the hole before we throw the new tire on. Great practice.

 

[ahchiu]

[Harald]

Hey AuburnFJR,

I plugged the date into my calendar and there's a conflict: I'm out of town that weekend! :angry:

So please take my name off the list. Damn! Even though I don't have any farkles to install I was looking forward to hanging out and helping. Oh well, there's always next time.....

 

[ahchiu]

For those installing the Audiovox CC who plan on putting a vacume tube in, I 'm putting one on and can get the parts for who ever else wants one, PM me and let me know what parts you need.

 

[Dang]

I would love to learn how to do the TBS and I can change the plugs while I am at it. I'll be there.

 

[wingshot]

AuburnFJR,

Please add me to the reserve space for spending the night. The plan is to meet up and ride over with Duster19.

Outside of meeting up with the group and getting guidance/assistance installing a fuse block, I am good.

Yet, I am sure if there is time, a TBS may be needed as the weather will clear up and miles will be put on the bike in the coming weeks. Plus, I can bring over my new PRIIs for installation as I would like to get first hand experience and assistance changing my own tires.
