    lol poor Sam didn't even know her bike was going to be the guinea pig... On Thursday morning I was like "oh by the way...." lol But she's ok with it Exspecially after Kerry fixed her brake fluid issue... she was happy with that...

    If you want to use the FXR for the next spanner night, let me know and this time I'll "ask" her first lol.

    The next spanner night sounds like fun... Maybe a slight suggestion... would it be possible to organise some chairs... with so many people crowded around the bike... and the taller people standing infront of the shorter people made it more of a "listening" session... Of course we would all still come forward and watch whats being done... but still an option
    I'm not a complete idiot... some pieces are missing

    Yeah Kerry, much thanks mate.

    You seem to genuinely give a shit about doing a good job and are not just the sort to do a half assed job to grab people's hard-earned.

    I'll definitely drop by some time in the future to give you some biz.

    It was a good night, I only turned up later. Nice meeting a few new faces and the old ones!

    Good stuff Frosty and Kerry for putting it all together!

    Just another chipping one chipping in their gratitude for the evening. A lot learnt, and some scary stories that help to put things in perspective.

    I don't know if Kerry intended this or not, but he sounds like a great bloke and I will most probably be moving any business I have to him. Does he do Kawasakis??

    And I seem to have "accidentally" missed all the photos... I should have also tried to put some names to faces...

    Kudos to Kerry. I'm going to pop in tomorrow because, thanks to his excellent training, I've realised my chain is loose. Better safe than sorry...
    Remember to never split an infinitive. The passive voice should never be used. Do not put statements in the negative form. Proofread carefully to see if you words out. And don't start a sentence with a conjugation. (William Safire)

    welcome..
    there's plenty of peeps around to show you the ropes on a one-to-one thing almost any afternoon you can pick. There's always someone around here.. Search thru the threads too on anything you need to know. These nights are once in a while. This is the first in a long time, but was such a good night, another might be done again in a couple of months or so. An advancement-on-this night is being talked about too.. Just pm someone and ask. I don't mind helping out where I can
