Tech Day SoCal?

Kevin2109 · May 6th, 2011, 10:39 AM

Who would be interested in a tech day soon? I have a bunch of mods I want to do to my bike that have to do with wiring and LED's and didnt know if you guys wanted me to show you in person or just make a DIY (or both

)

There are also a couple new members that I know would like a tech day also

alex.s · May 6th, 2011, 10:59 AM

yeah i do need to put an r1 shock on the fzr

sixer · May 6th, 2011, 11:24 AM

I bought these parts on ebay- *I hope thats a fender eliminator( in the red)* if so ill wait to install it on yer next tech day-

Kevin2109 · May 6th, 2011, 12:15 PM

Looks like a Fe kit

Any idea where a good location would be? Dont know id Keven is willing to host again. I would offer but i dont have a garage

Cazper · May 6th, 2011, 03:48 PM

Well I know at the last one Keven said we could anytime... but I'm not gonna speak for him... I'll send him a PM though. I'm still trying to convince my wife to let me get the full exhaust and then I would like to do a tech day for jetting purposes... heck at that point Jeremy could do a slipon install too

Either way I'm always down for getting together for this kinda stuff!!!

I'm semi-serious. I realize it's out of the way for almost everyone, and it's starting to be the wrong time of year for the desert. But if enough folks are interested, I'll check with Crissy.

Maybe in the winter...

p1noysta · May 6th, 2011, 04:24 PM

I'm interested in a tech day, maybe someone can help me with my idle mixture screw can't get it right

HypnoKhaos · May 6th, 2011, 04:36 PM

Hell yeah! Does that mean someone is getting a full exhaust?

Ken, I'm down to ride to Indio.

You sure? That's a pretty long haul for you!

We need to do a ride up 74 (or something) sometime also. Who's the guy in Banning? (Did the recent Idlywild post.)

Havok · May 6th, 2011, 05:29 PM

Indio is not that much farther then kevins for me both 2 to 2:30 so i am good no matter where we do it, i need to do stuff to the 250 so the closer the better, i am in no matter where it is.

TeamGreen · May 6th, 2011, 07:11 PM

My garage is always open to you ninjetters (and I guess you could bring those yamahas if you have to, haha).

I'd also be up for indio, mostly just for some riding on 74. My family has a place in palm desert too so if anyone would want to crash there its a possibility. I was just out during coachella though and its hot as a motha so maybe winter would be better.

Anyway, i'll keep checking up. I just need a couple weeks notice to get a weekend day off.

Also, I still think someone has one of my 8mm sockets and I believe I have an extra 10mm.

The road is never long on my bike. Some kind of space time continuum thing happens...hours pass by after what seems like only 5 mins. Weeeee!

more has to do with the flux capacitor.... problem with that is the 250R has a hard time reaching the needed 88mph.

HypnoKhaos · May 6th, 2011, 08:32 PM

I hear shiming helps

Cazper · May 6th, 2011, 11:20 PM

Indio is about 2 hours from me... that's a heck of a drive considering that after the day of working on bikes it would be another 2 hours to get home. I'm sure I could manage... but would definitely prefer something closer... but obviously thats up to the masses.

I haven't really gotten any feedback from my wife about the exhaust... it's very rare that she doesn't let me get what I want though. I just don't like to bug her about things because... well, again... she almost never says no to me...lol

Cuongism · May 7th, 2011, 05:40 PM

Hey Keven, I would love for you to install the lights on my bike

. Unfortunately, I lost my one and only key yesterday so it might take awhile to get a key cut from manufacturer. Hopefully my key code is still legible. I've been telling myself to get a copy since last year

sixer · May 7th, 2011, 10:12 PM

Omg so lucky! Dustin are you going to install it at the tech day?

I'm about to order my Area P race

just have to make sure all my finances are right

Cazper · May 8th, 2011, 08:48 PM

I defintiely plan to install at the tech day... just depends when I get the exhaust and when the tech day ends up being. So you decided on the Area P huh... thats cool, what made you decide Area P?

I don't know about that... Cuong had the Yoshi and got the Area P and unless I misheard him I'm pretty sure he liked the Yoshi better. I personally prefer the looks of the Yoshi over pretty much any other exhaust on the market for our bikes.

As for the money... it comes with time and age...lol. I don't know that I have all that much money... Just know how to budget pretty well

Well when I heard Cuong's I kinda fell in love, and it has so many reviews and everyone loves it. And I like the look of the conical tip with the 12" So thats my plan

and I must get the race version

If I am able to get the AP before the tech day I might as well do the pods, and maybe even jet it

I do work 57 hours a week

And yes Area P is the bestest!

sixer · May 8th, 2011, 09:38 PM

Caz_ what slip on is it? I might be interested...

Cazper · May 8th, 2011, 09:47 PM

I have the Hotbodies MGP Growler... Jeremy (HypnoKhaos) mentioned he liked it at Ticket to Ride... if he doesn't want it and you do then I'll let you know.

If you research what we need as far as parts for the install i'd be happy to help wire it all nice and clean (and as waterproof as possible). If you want to come down some time just let me know. A mini tech day is fine anytime too.

I should get a spare key made... losing it would suck... especially at work or out somewhere.

Kevin2109 · May 8th, 2011, 10:54 PM

I can get pretty much any tool you can think of for electrical related things

Cuongism · May 8th, 2011, 10:55 PM

Hey guys,
It's a weird comparison because it's slip-on vs full exhaust. I prefer the sound and looks of the yoshi, but the Area P produces much more torque and hp so I felt a difference with it. The Area P does sound great as well though. Just an FYI Keven, I have the 15 in size so a little longer and quieter than the 12 in.

When I lost my ninja key, I also lost my wallet so I won't be able to order a key until my new cards come. I am free this coming weekend though.

Cuong your killing me with the spelling of our names

I'm thinking your referring to me in your last post? And hmmm.... maybe I'll do the 15

I'll check it out again when I see you next

Cuongism · May 8th, 2011, 11:08 PM

Haha sorry, I'm mixing you and other Keven up. 3 Kevin's are hard to keep up with! So Keven, my other post about the lights was for Kevin since he's done it on his already.
