We are Gearing Up for the Tech Day to be held on February 23, 2018. This is intended to wrench along side your fellow South Coasters whether it be a minor maintenance item you can do yourself, or something you would like assistance on from someone who has done it before.
.
Think about a project you would like to get done and add to this thread:
.
1) Project Description
2) Do it yourself or need help?
3) Have all tools or need tools?
.
A few ideas to get your ideas started:
.
Tire Replacement
Engine Oil Replacement
Gear Oil Replacement
Final Drive Oil Replacement
Brake Fluid Replacement
Headlight, Tailight Bulb Replacement
.
GS911 Operation
.
Accessory installation, lights, highway pegs, crash bars, windscreen
.
Other projects?
.
.
We will do our best to match those that can help with those in need, but no guarantees. Will let you know either way.
.
.
Remember, you need to bring all supplies you need and take home everything you brought by the end of the day.
.
Thank you,SCBMWRC BOD

I know Eastly and I just did his 12k service on his RT, but he needs his R75 forks serviced and has an electrical gremlin in the headlight … just not sure if he is working this day or planning on attending?
I “should be” finished replacing main rear crank and trans shaft seals as well (as the oil pump o-rings) in both of my Airheads today, so I am good on personal projects (I hope) … although …. I am close to needing a front tire on my RT and I’ll bet there is an easier tire changer than my Harbor Freight one there … hmmmm
Answering the roll call with a plan to attend, projects unknown at this time.

Thanks for the projects so far;

GS911 overview, specific questions; Brandon – Support; Chris/Larry?
Tire Change; Karl, Chris (potential) – Support; Paul’s equipment/Larry/Chris
R75 Walk through, interested in the pro’s opinion on projects and condition, Clutch cable, brakes/rotors, valve adjustment, ???

I will be bringing a box of R75 parts if anyone wants to sift through them and tell me if they are worth anything and worth keeping.
.
Any other projects? -

Looks like we have a lot of interest in GS911 use, should be helpful. Bring your unit if you want any help on your bike. Chris, Larry and I will have our units but only hooked up to our bikes. No one is an expert on these units, but can share what we know.
I pick up my Heidenau rear tire for my F900GSA, to change on Larry’s or Paul’s changer, or by hand if needed!
I believe Bill Allen has an airhead work project, valves I believe.
Some electrical trouble shooting was talked about, but not sure what the project was.
Bring the rags and supplies you need to keep Paul’s work area clean!
Should be a good day, bring more projects if you think of them!

I am going to start the morning at the South County Cars and Coffee which is just around the corner from the Nelson’s at the outlet mall. Check out the website if you are interested.

I was tempted to go but decided to do Lisa’s steering head bearings in my garage instead, just in case something unexpected went wrong. How did the GS-911 work go? I hear Dave Eastly has an old model (like mine) that’s looking for a good home.
Dave’s email is [email protected]
