Chch Wednesday Maintenance Evenings

**SpeedMonger** · 5th May 2009, 20:04

So anyone doing any maintaining tomorrow? More lovely weather on the way for tomorrow by the look of it. So I might pike out yet again. But if anyone is doing any work on their bike I would be interested in coming along for a look and give a hand.

Might drop in if I can get out of work in time.

Don't need anything fixed on the scooter at the moment. It's actually quite reilyable.

Just posted my form off to the Brass, don't know exactly what my plans are and they change with the forcast, but if anybody is interested..... Probably going to Oamaru on Friday after work then to the rally Sat. Back Sunday via Hast if the weather is fine or just up the main road if it is not.

Its just one of those things. The belts last for ages unless they get stoned. Swaped the last one out myself which was a relatively easy job.

I'm sure McWilds bike will need working on. There's always something wrong with it

**Wet** · 6th May 2009, 11:36

I am considering replacing my existing fork springs with some progressive springs and a heavier weight oil. I would like some help in, firstly any info about where they can be purchased(locally if possible), cost and also is it worth replacing the internal valves?

Cheers

Have checked Racetech and Progressive Sites for info.

Actually everything seems to be fine at the moment. Um except I think my reserve tank line may be blocked. Maybe.
Other than that it should all be fine.

But then we still have 3 hours 11 minutes, right?
