Spring PNW Tech Meet #14 - May 2nd

[Dagwood]

New to FJR's. Don't know what I don't know. Wouldn't be planning anything for my stock Gen III (non ES) but will likely leave with a list of things that I didn't know I needed before Tech Meet #14.

If you aren't too picky about the company you keep I'd love to come help where I can, watch and learn. Bikes I've owned over the years have been dealer serviced.

Time for the Spring gathering, bench racing and tech day. Saturday May 2nd at my house again. (If you haven't been here, PM me and I'll send you the address) Starting at 9 AM going until 5 PM. (Cost is $10 includes lunch and helps with shop consumables) PLEASE Respond to the thread if you are coming so we can get a head count for lunch.
Try to keep in mind if you are doing something that takes a lot of time, that it may not be the best place to do it. Some have tried to do a cruise control install for the first time and have not been able to finish.

Maintenance suggested so far are:

Grounding system

Tire changes (Derek Weaver tire machine) for those who need to (please take your used tires with you or leave $5 per tire so I can take them to the recycler)

TBS

PAIR system block off

Various electrical and electronic additions

Brake system flush - please RSVP this

Fork rebuilds

If you are traveling some distance and need a place to stay, there are a couple of motels in Auburn about 5 miles away (La Quinta Inn and a Pepper Tree Best Western).

Lunch - snacks, pizza, salad, and soda. Bring your own beverages for stronger stuff.

There will be a swap meet also. Bring your stuff you want to trade or sell.

Attendees: (Please RSVP that you are coming for a head count on the food)

If I start making name tags now maybe I will have them done on time.

 

[chazglenn3]

Something else has come up and I will have to drop out this time. Hopefully the fall tech day will work out for me.

 

[Wendel]

I'm in as well. Cheers.

I'm interested. Live in Newcastle. Have an 06 regular with 25k miles. Bought with 23k on Turkey Day. Been using for a commuter. Any recommendations on what I look into? Bike seems to be running fine except light burning smell, and I'm sure the brakes / tires / fluids will need a look by May.

 

[escapefjrtist]

More the merrier 'para, welcome!

They'll be lots of information flowing at Tech Day...ask away.

Just realized that the Grizzley's tent sale is the exact same day in Bellingham. Tho it's at 8am. Looks like I'll be there around noon or 1 if I make it. Lol, Newcastle -> Bellingham at 5am -> Newcastle (hopefully with car full of mill) -> Auburn on feejr that afternoon.

 

[n2osx]

Well my friends, it does not look we will be making it. We will be up in Seattle the weekend before. We have never really gotten a chance to mosie around Seattle, so we are taking a long weekend and staying up there in a Timeshare looking for things to do.

The bike is sitting at home with the top of the motor waiting on new valve shims. Hopefully I will get them tonight or tomorrow and have her back together. Hoping to have her ready to ride up to Seattle if the weather works out.

 

[Niehart]

I just sent a bunch of PM's for info for the name tags.

Now that part of the name tag job is done it's off some where on the bike on this awesome sunny shinny day.
