Folks I think the basic spanner evening went pretty darn well (I hope so anyways)
I'm happy to hold more but Im thinking some Idea of specific stuff you lot what to know would be good.
One question was -how to bleed dual line brakes another was suspension setups for sports bikes.
I'm hoping I can rope in experts in various feilds to give lectures and practical hands on stuff.
By next time Ill have my work bench back so we'll all be able to see a bit better.
So come on guys and gals feedback time so I can get the ball rolling--

Well sometime, I'd love to see cleaning carby's, tuning etc. and having a look inside the cylinder(s) and checking issues.

Oh yeah Frostyboy, open up your carby and tell me if your diaphram has a hole will ya!

Shouldn't you be in a playground somewhere, playing "tag" with your primaery school chums?

Would be more of an aside but most people know nothing about tyre / battery and other consumerable maintenance.
I understand you covered chain tension but what about the difference betwixt, and how to lube?

How do you look after a battery... From a mech as opposed to just the "old biker who takes every opportunity to talk and tell everyone what he thinks" :Oops:

What do different wear patterns mean?
