Matts_12GS Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 I just ordered shocks for the GS and I need to do a brake bleed on the GS' servo brakes. I have garage space and the funnels to do the GS brakes if anyone else wants to do theirs. I'll also do valves and check TBS. I'll also change all my fluids and lube the splines while I'm there if I have time to do that too. I'm thinking 2/20 for the work. Anyone? Anyone? Link to comment

Maybe we can arrange to put it on at the tech day....(this is called arm twisting) See the maybe is because I have to umpire in Americus on Friday....so depending on what time I get back from there is the deciding factor. Last game is scheduled to begin at 1800 Friday night. As for that "certain" part(s)...I'm all in on that! If all else fails, I'll be in ya'll's neck of the woods on March 4th to call at Flagler.

Ron-M Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Count me in. I am told by my local BMW tech that I need a throttle body sync. I should probably do a brake bleed as well. Could use some help with both items. Anyone? Anyone? Link to comment
Ron-M Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Hey Bill- How come Pete needs some parts? Would it have something to do with Huckleberry's? Link to comment
Highway41 Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Matt's got your brakes covered and I got your valve adj in case you don't remember how. Bill Link to comment

KDeline Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 I'm thinking I might have to come to this, and help out. Link to comment
Knifemaker Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 I now may not make it. There is an AIR HEAD tech day in St. Augustine also on the 20th and I might be able to get tips on my /5 there. If you make it Pete the "parts" will be at Matt's house.... Link to comment
PRC Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 he slid in and was safe. avoided the tag! If you make it Pete the "parts" will be at Matt's house.... Thanks Bill, I'm gonna try to "slide" by! Link to comment

Matts_12GS Posted February 16, 2010 Author Share Posted February 16, 2010 Hi everyone, I think I am going to hold off on this. It looks like my shocks are not going to be here in time and I'd rather not pull the bike apart twice (once for brakes, once for shocks). Sorry for the inconvenience. Link to comment
Ron-M Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 That's okay Matt, I was on the fence anyway about coming over to J-Ville. You just helped me make up my mind. See ya next time. Link to comment
Huzband Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 There goes my surprise visit. Link to comment
Matts_12GS Posted February 17, 2010 Author Share Posted February 17, 2010 Yep, we're pretty much out unless my shocks get here tomorrow. So, I'll probably just go ride the SuMo for a while. Come on by Link to comment
Matts_12GS Posted February 18, 2010 Author Share Posted February 18, 2010 Hey everyone, my shocks got here Wednesday so I am going to put them in. I will try to bleed my brakes as well. If anyone wants to come and watch the operation, feel free to PM me and I'll get you the address. Link to comment
Knifemaker Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Go Bill, Go. Good Luck. Thanks Bernie.......... Link to comment
