  1. id like to get a list started. i think around 10-12 people would be good. my garage isnt gigantic, but i can move some things around, and move a bike or 2 outside to create some room.
  2. id love to have Pauly and Brian there to help or speak as well. so if they are good with more of a mid day time that will work for me. im pretty much open all day.
  3. anyone can bring their bike in if they want. its gonna be cold, so if you dare to ride, or trailer it over thats all good. if no one brings a bike, i will have the track bike to demonstrate on ( was planning on using it as learning tool anyway) i have my track bike, the ducati, and another GSXR sitting in the garage we can use. that way everyone can have a hands on approach at it. also if you plan to bring your own bike over, please bring any tools you have for your suspension, as in rear preload adjuster wrenches. I have one or 2 but may not fit your specific bike.
  4. dead sexy. looking forward to the build. aside from the discount/and you work for ducati reasoning for going with the termi setup VS. say full Arrow System and retuning the ECU? id probably go with the termi setup as well if i could get a decent discount on the parts, but not getting a discount, its cheaper for me (for my multistrada) to buy a full arrow and get a tuner (tune boy) and then have it dyno tuned. about $600+ cheaper interested to also see how you like the 30mm kit in that thing. would love to hear a comparison vs. the stock ohlins on the S model. oh, and wanna hook a brotha up on some Ducati parts =-)
  5. Time wise.. What would be good for everyone?
  6. Thats fine with me, you probably have a little more knowledge in the fine tuning and cause and affect on the track then i do, so it would be a great idea.
  7. yes i am. ill still be doing some stuff on the side here and there, so just hit me up and ill see what i can do.
  8. Im thinking that Sunday might be the day
  9. did you get the fork seals replaced on the enduro bike yet. after my last PM i never heard back from ya
  10. I could do it on a weekday in the evening or on a weekend day 26th-30th looks pretty open for me
  11. was gonna do this some what earlier this year, but things got all messed up. im not a super genius on suspension, but i can impart some of you on some knowledge you may not have. this a not something im doing as a business, but as a forum member wanting to share a bit of my knowledge and experience. kind of a meet and greet/ know how thing what ill cover.. setting sag affects of preload and spring rate change what is rebound damping/ how does it affect the bike what is compression damping/ how does it affect the bike difference between hi/low speed damping rake and trail you can opt to bring your bike and have your sag set. i will show you how to get a baseline for damping, and where to take it from there. as DesmoBrian has stated in other threads, damping isnt something that really can be set and left alone. Different riding conditions will require different settings to get optimal performance out of your suspension. im gonna not try to go to in depth, but give folks some info into how your suspension works, why it does what it does, and what all those adjustments do. as well as meet some members from the forum. at the moment i have no tenative date for this, and pending on how many are interested i may do this more than once to break big groups up. i have a week and a half off coming up during the holiday time, so that would work the best for me i think. it will be held in my Heated Garage, bring drinks, food, whatever. we could all pitch in for pizza and pop or whatever. so whos in?
  12. really appreciate on the kind words from you fine folks. still look me up for some tire changes this coming season. Ill do what i can for ya.
  13. They are keyless operation at that. Fob has to be in your pocket for it to start

    Motohio A+

    I had to take my Duc in to Motohio for a service bulletin. there was a coolant update for it. dropped it off on friday, and picked up today. they are always very helpful, and great to deal with. they had ordered me a new left hand guard from the last time i was in, and forgot all about it. (replaced under warranty) they got that installed as well. and they also fixed a loose undertail problem that is common on all of them. there is no service bulletin for it, but they fixed it just because. also since i do all my own services i had the damn service reminder popping up on my dash every time i kick the bike on. I asked it they could rid that for me and they took care of it no charge. All this good service, and i didnt even buy the bike from them. Probably would have if they had a white one in stock when i was looking. If i buy another ill head there first!
  17. Sale is pending on exhaust And teknic gloves
  18. yeah you can pretty much ride any bike there.
  19. maybe a new production V4 super bike http://www.cycleworld.com/2012/12/04/honda-rc1000v-concept-bike/?cmpid=facebook
