    As a matter of fact I do extensive work on motorcycles. I am still learning the Yamaha, but am very well versed on BMW.

    I ride down past Charlottsville at least once a month. It is about 100 miles from me. So not far at all.

    I am thinking maybe getting some area locals together for a Tech Day and share some knowledge.

    Jim :cool:

    Give me a couple weeks, I have our local club rally, followed by another the week after, but then I will have some time!

    I am really interested in getting to know my turbo better.

    Thanks,

    Cool, maybe we can set up a Saturday Tech Day sometime? I have done many of them for our local BMW club. They are a great way to get together and wrench and socialize.

    Having one tomorrow night for a tire/rim change and 6K service on a couple bikes.

    sweet id like to be able to start the bike in the winter this year better than it has been. i find that the bike dont like the cold so much, and i havent got to use the tool. oh if your a football fan we do monday night foot ball. the screen is about 7 feet high by 8 feet across makes watching things so much better.

    Hey I'm in Lynchburg, VA. My xj550 isn't road worthy yet (all in pieces) but its a bit cold for riding right now anyway. Hopefully I will have her ready by the time it warms up, if not I always have the Katana to ride.
