Just wondering if anyone needs a wrench party these days?  Mine is running fine and most things are still attached, so I'm OK.  It's been a while, though.

Mine is running fine.

But I'd like to attend as many as possible and "download" some extra knowledge.

I could use one for some of the more mundane things like brake & clutch fluid change that are easier with more than two hands.

I'm about ready to host one if folks are interested.  Need to service at least one rear end and also need fluid changeouts on both bikes.

I think Walt still needs a leak looked at...

I would like to install  the starter switch relay.
-----and, maybe, a run, turn, brake module or "Backoff" module.

Dave - when you're ready, post a date and time.  I think we'll get a crowd.

I do have some stainless steel brake lines to install, but depends on the mood of the spousal unit.  I've been gone a lot lately.

How about April 21 or 22?  Saturday works better for me, but I can accomodate.

The black bike is peeing down its left leg.  I need to rebuild forks too, sometime, but probably not this time.

I could make it on the 21st. I have to go up to Oklahoma later that evening so I may have to cut out a little early. Looking forward to it.

Sounds like a plan.  Mine did not leak on the LaserPat ride, so it may have been overfilled, but it would be nice to really know.  Also, does anyone have experience installing the side trunk rails on an I/S??   I have to cut a bit off and redrill and bend a bit for them to look straight.  I need all the help I can get for those.  I can make either date.  Even if its a two day Roll Eyes.
