    Basic maintenance evening

    We all know that once daylight saving is here, we will resume our Wednesday evening rides (will dredge up the old thread later).
    HOWEVER, for the first one (Oct 3) a spanner night would be the go...
    Our place 5.30. Bring your bike, questions, expertise, whatever.
    We will be covering the sorts of things that all motorcyclists should know/be able to do for themselves.
    YT and I also suggest that to make life easy, we do a shared F+C or pizza meal.
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    It really did look very unloved. Specially as it was next to the R1 that the whole crowd wanted to look at. Gixxer 4 ever

    No dyno, sorry , but don't let that stop you coming along.
    I'm sure you would have some valuable tips to impart.
