    Riffer gets a birthday - Fixit today, maybe tomorrow

    Yep, she hit 40,000km and it's time for a long delayed service and I'm doing it all. For those of you who also feel the need to work on your bike or just talk/learn about working on your bike, feel free to come around.

    BYO fluids, but I've got a pretty comprehensive toolkitshed

    EDIT: still on for the 23rd

    0274054213 for address if you don't already know it.

    Oh sweet, I was just about to do an oil change in my own garage, but might as well drop by and talk shit over at yours whilst doing it instead.

    Jeez dude, you had me worried. Not my birthday till February.

    As for 40,000 kms - my RF's just hit 140,000kms.
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    - James Dickey, Cherrylog Road.

    any good shop should know and have the right filter - try cycletreads.

    AJ at KTL has 4L of spectro4 for $50 for all those who don't believe that oil changes can cost less than $70


    and yes, still on for tomorrow unless these carbies get friendly

    You have no opinions until you have a bike. An assembled bike.

    My opinion that the 636 is a cool bike is also invalid.
