Tech/ maintnace session II

[Duc L'Smart]

damn, you're right.... but I'm pretty irrational sometimes!

[bullethead]

So anything we missed, constructive criticism or nonconstructive criticism? or Dance requests.

There are four spots open for this coming weekend. Anyone want in?

I'll chime in.

Glad I went and well worth the money.  You get to pick Stuart's brain while watching him wrench on stuff.  What's not to like? (except the 9am part!)

My favorite part (if I can spill the secret learned) was when Stuart was asked for his preferred method of cleaning chains.  He replied that he'd "never cleaned a chain".  That's all I needed to hear to keep me from ever scrubbing a chain again!   

Highly recommended, and I'm in for the next one!

Thanks to Stuart and Bullethead!

Well, hell, I don't need the class now!!!

Anyone else "in" for Saturday?!?

[Slag]

Stuart is doing us a huge favor here.  Could you imagine asking AMS or Eurosport to teach a similar class?  It is truly incredible that he is willing to teach, and the $50 for 4 hours is an unreal bargain. 

That being said, I feel that we should treat Stuart with the respect that he deserves.  Several people did not show up for the last event, and they did not let anyone know that they were bailing.  I, for one, would have happily filled one of the empty spots.  A short post on either board would have opened the slot up to someone who could make it.

Let's not ruin a good thing here.  If Stuart is expecting 5 or 6 people, and only 2 show up, he may decide that it isn't worth teaching the class.  There are only 2 people scheduled for this weekend, but at least he knows that.  Incredibly he is willing to teach a 4 hour class for only $100     

If you commit to a spot in the class, please make every effort to be there.  If not, please be courteous enough to let Kirk know.  We really do not want to lose this resource.

I would like to thank Kirk once again for setting this all up.

The session is well worth the $50.  Stuart is very knowledgeable and eager to explain.  And yes, bailing is very uncool.

Awesome day! Huge thanks to Kirk for organizing, & Stuart of course for tolerating us
Lots learned today...
CDC's front axle is no longer square, back to round, & we saved Kirk's bike from certain destruction (screws holding the front cam pulley were just about to fall out).
Plus we got to witness the oh-so-expensive Ducati Corse belt tension harmonizer gizmo in action!

Looking forward to the next one [moto]
