Title: Maintenance Day - Sat 20th Jun 2015 - VNW Resort, Kallangur
Post by: Gadget on November 08, 2014, 09:41:36 PM
As there has been no takers for Springsure, Shiney and I have decided to make this a Maintenance Day at my place.

Shiney is going to change his oil,  I might do the same and replace the oil filter.

Date: Sat, 20th June 2015

Time: 10:00 am

Place: VNW Resort, Kallangur

Send a Text to my mobile phone 04 2448 3555 with your Forum Name and first name and I'll send you my address.

We'll have a BBQ lunch so bring some meat and buns/bread and anything you would like to drink.

We have a tea,  coffee machine, iced water and ice dispenser.

I may turn up, as I have to leave Coolangatta on the Friday. I might just go for a ride off somewhere inland before heading off down home. Will just depend on what I do during that week as may get bored with all the hinterland roads :)

Lionel,

I'm not really a Red drinker, so I need help clearing room in the wine rack for more white wines and port.
You're welcome to come give him a hand.  :grin

Sounds like an offer too good to refuse  :beer  The bike will probably need a wash and general check over.

If anyone wants to do a carb synch on an st1100 I can bring my Morgan Carbtune vacuum balancer, and a vacuum volume Tool used on Su carbs. Both do the job, some think the latter one is smoother

Don't forget folks - you don't have t work on your bike to come along and enjoy the company - just bring your lunch grub.     :EatCake


Anyone who wants to see some jokers  experts work on their bikes, and pick up a few tips should also turn up - all questions will be attempted to be answered.


10am at Gadget's house - call/txt him for the address.


Hope to see you there.     ++


Cheers, Diesel

Through my magic mirror i see 3 S's a D & a G.
Would have been good to stop by for a quick (faded) guest star spot but saturday morning/arvo work turnaround is brutal  :spank

Looks like the FD oil needed changing Diesel  ;-*

Southern Comfort Black Label (100 Proof) must be experienced at least once in your life. :grin

Very few get the privilege to share Dezohn's Southern Comfort including moi.

The bike is still relatively clean too, so I am sure there will be some clay etc etc on the way to and from Gulargambone
