    Anyone keen on a BASIC spanner night ?

    I notice we haven't had/run a spanner night for bloody yonks.
    It just so happens I have a bike bench and a goodly sized gargre in the evenings.
    I'm thinking basic stuff like chain tension oil change etc.
    Anybody keen??

    A cracking Idea!

    I had been riding dirt bikes for 5 years before anyone told me that air filters need cleaning after every ride!!!
    Retired- just some guy with a few bikes......

    i need to replace my clutch sometime? probably goes a bit beyond basic but if the basic one turns out ok, and you want to do another spanner night, my bikes available. (ive orderd the springs + fibers but might be mid march untill the get here)
    Then I could get a Kb Tshirt, move to Timaru and become a full time crossdressing faggot

    Great idea, Frosty! I've been muddling through, learning as I go, trying to follow poorly photocopied manuals, but it would be great to learn some stuff properly!
    There is no such thing as bad weather; only inappropriate clothing!

    How about changing disc brake pads?
    and flushing/bleeding the brake fluid?
