Right you Auckland lot, if you arent going on the ride down to Awakino then i've got something that might tickle your sweet spot, or not.
I've decided that the 15w oil in my forks is far to heavy and after some consultation i have decided that a change to 5w is in order.
So on saturday (1st of July) i will be pulling the forks off of the R6 and changing the oil which involves doing all the same stuff as when you change your fork seals.
If anyone has thought about changing their fork seals on conventional/right way up forks but decided not to because it was too hard, then this is the time to come and watch how it is done.
Due to liability etc I will be doing the work myself and not letting anyone do anything overly important. But all the same, if you want to see what is involved then by all means come along.
I would like to have it done within a few hours, so i'll have the bike up off the ground and with the fairings off on friday night, so i guess a start time of around 10am would be the best go.
If you would like to come along then PM me so i know how many people to expect, and so i can give you my address.
If you want to bring some beer, i drink tui.
