September 4th - SoCal Tech day

ninja250 · August 12th, 2011, 10:02 AM

Lets get this going.

I have Jet booked for a valve job early next week.

I have Honey Badger's Jet kit and I think he needs to swap jets.

I need to figure out a wheelie bar and could use some help people holding the bike up for me on the back wheel.

Adrian is gonna need his rearsets installed, levers and another crash inspection.

Who else needs more work?
When and where are we looking at for another Socal Tech day?
All ideas welcomed. Lets try and get some ride time in on this one also? Maybe a BBQ even?
See you Monday Jet. We'll get a video of your valve job for the ninjette forum.

alex.s · August 12th, 2011, 10:06 AM

yes i need to get my ass out of work and play with some bikes...

EddieNewYork · August 12th, 2011, 10:15 AM

I'm down to help out and kick it.

Kevin2109 · August 12th, 2011, 10:34 AM

How about next weekend? I'll be MIA playing with bears in the forest this weekend

I think next weekend will work for me too.

ninja250 · August 12th, 2011, 10:51 AM

Sounds good here.
Where are you going Kevin? I'm always in the woods fishing and camping and mobbin' the 'Ja. NinJa that is lol.

Now who's house are we going to take over and who's cooking (if anything!) and who is riding.
Maybe we need one more week to organize?
We should plan a time to start riding so all tech day matters are resolved before said time and we all get a group ride in? Or ride before we wrench, come back and cook a BBQ and wrench on bikes till you can't handle the darkness?

Eddie long time to see man will be good to see you again!

Trailerboy531 · August 12th, 2011, 11:06 AM

I could use a tech day. I need a crash inspection after I get things mostly fixed up, maybe some help installing these rearsets if I can't figure it out myself and a hand getting these confounded bar ends off. An oil change probably wouldn't hurt either. Next Saturday maybe? Hopefully ill have some working pegs on by then and can ride.

EddieNewYork · August 12th, 2011, 11:15 AM

You too Casey! I'm down to eat and ride too.

CZroe · August 12th, 2011, 11:22 AM

Glad to see talk has already started! I do still have to install my hugger and clip-ons, but I don't know if my coworker is going to stay over for me again so soon.

sixer · August 12th, 2011, 05:51 PM

Hope its ona sunday ima buy a dyno kit - sorr I didn't make B4

really? She let you think you have a whole 49%? Wow she IS good!

Amezcua · August 13th, 2011, 07:09 AM

What's this tech day about sounds interesting

adri99an · August 13th, 2011, 07:11 AM

Look- I've got it in writing!

If we do it at my place it would have to be on the 27 or 28...pending my submission to the boss and review from the board in our neighborhood....

Actually Sept. 3 or 4 may be best because I'd have the 5th off (Labor Day)

of course pending submission and so forth-LOL

adri99an · August 13th, 2011, 07:32 AM

Joe- we basically meet at someone's house or place and get some stuff done to our bikes while having a good time......oil changes....lights....brakes...we're all fieinds here so we do it out of friendship or help you do it...people bring the tools they need or we share tools....we have a few very knowledgeable guys that help with anything...

We eat...then ride...then kiss and hug goodbye....my favorite part is the riding...LOL

It usually starts early so we can ride later in the day...

Somepeople just come by to hang for while and ride...you can sit and watch + learn

Amezcua · August 13th, 2011, 07:48 AM

Right on ill keep an eye out for it

Cazper · August 13th, 2011, 09:06 AM

I've been so busy lately that I haven't had time to do anything... if it's later (like mentioned 3rd or 4th) that may actually work out for me. I do still need to get with KC about a valve job... going to be gone again this week to Hawthorne, NV. should have gotten things together sooner to just leave the bike... oh well... I'm keeping my eyes peeled!!!

ninja250 · August 14th, 2011, 10:06 AM

Schedule a day for the Valve Jobs. They tend to be too long for a tech day.
Any time you want to bring it by with some coolant, oil, filters and plugs I'm ready to do the job.

Just send me a PM.
Sorry I couldn't get back to you on the last one I was "taking a break" fromt he site. lol

Kevin2109 · August 14th, 2011, 09:03 PM

So next Sunday? Or are we pushing it out a bit? There's ALWAYS things to work on. Maybe if we wait I can reveal my super awesome plan and get it working.

Were going to need a big garage with a good supply of tools and stands
Ken?

Trailerboy531 · August 14th, 2011, 09:53 PM

I say do it on a saturday! I don't work until 5 on saturdays, i work at 11 on sundays

ninja250 · August 15th, 2011, 03:05 PM

Well it looks like it's either Me or Adrian's garage?
Should we move it back another week or make it for Sunday?

Kevin2109 · August 15th, 2011, 03:31 PM

if its not a sunday I cant go..

Kevin2109 · August 15th, 2011, 05:21 PM

unless its like 30 days out.... Because then I can get a day off lol

That might work better because I'll have some parts in for my big mod

We don't mind having the tech days here and we don't mind if they last all weekend. Just know that Crissy works all week and Ken works in Los Angeles, comes to Indio only on the weekends. We have a TON of animals, but have two spare rooms for any over nighters. The reason we have not offered for this up coming event is because it's 107 here. If you want to brave the heat

let us know.

Gurk · August 15th, 2011, 07:36 PM

Can't wait to attend these! Gotta wait till Sept 15th or so though :/

ManyCavies · August 15th, 2011, 10:18 PM

would love to have you

adri99an · August 16th, 2011, 06:56 AM

My house is still open....small garage....very little tools- ask Kevin about this...I gotta a hammer and a pizzza cutter.....big driveway...pool table.....slip & slide in the back......I'll set up some cones in the street and we can also work on maneuvering......GMR is 5 min. away (cha-ching).....the temp...usually around 88-91.....fridge in the garage....

We had a mini tech day last Sunday....that was fun

alex.s · August 16th, 2011, 09:46 AM

i hear a pizza cutter is a very useful tool for bikes

ninja250 · August 16th, 2011, 10:06 AM

That's how we make the tires, no?

Why don't we push it back one more week since we don't have anything set in stone yet.
Not this but next weekend?

lol your neighbors would love us!
Ask them if they have any other sized pizza cutters we can borrow to install your levers.

I wanna try tennis ball cones. I wonder if you lowside if you run one over while leaning. hahahaha

adri99an · August 16th, 2011, 06:15 PM

I have a feeling its going to be me, KC, and Kevin again-LETS DO THIS!

Maybe the 3rd or 4th??

Trailerboy531 · August 16th, 2011, 11:24 PM

Going out of town the weekend of the 3rd and 4th
