Gauging interest. Who might be down for a tech day to help each other out and learn new things. I am in. I can do oil changes, :ha:. Anyway, I don't think I have much time till after this quarter ends. Who is down to do it early next quarter? Raise of hands...

Im up for learning how to do a couple things to my bike....
After all I hardly know anything about servicing bikes. Im actually considering taking a motorcycle tech course next quarter at my old community college.

Best way to learn about your bike if your not a mechanic is to go and get the Chiltons manual or sevice manual from the dealership. I found that the dealer manuals are a bit better then the chiltons for motorcycles.

You can get them from the library!
