I'll be stopping in.
I'll bring those items & make sure they clear the GIVI rack.

<Homer voice> mmmmm...Donuts. </Homer voice>
Do you guys take call in questions from my garage via Skype?? :lol:
It should be about 33 degrees and raining...seems about right for some front caliper piston seal replacement and some seal/o-ring replacement forward of the U-joint. Neither of which I've done before.
Have a great time...and don't eat ALL the donuts. Save some for Shane.

9 seemed like a good time, in the absence of another suggestion.
Would you like to start earlier?

I guess it depends on how successful I am at getting both wheels off the bike tonight. That can be a bit tricky, if my memory is right, without a front end lift. I have done it several times, seem to remember putting weights into the trunk to get the front wheel off the ground after removing the rear. Kind of a balancing act after that.
My PR2 set will be here today....

Floor jack with a board under the exhaust works well for this--makes the wheels unnecessary for weight carrying. It also helps to put a board under the center stand to get a bit of extra lift to work with.

Ah yes, I would have forgotten about the trick to put wood under the center stand. Now that I have single sided exhaust I will be thinking of how to prop up the back end... probably just use the swing arm. I will see you guys tomorrow morning, let me know if there's any garage supplies you need I'll donate something.
