    Back on topic... I'll be there for Thursday and hopefully get on the dyno??
    Here is the place I used. http://www.platinum-powersports.com

    Hey, check this out... http://www.r6messagenet.com/forums/r...djustment.html
    Valve check/adjustment is not too difficult. You could do it yourself with the help of a shop manaul (Haynes, etc.). I did mine a few months back, (I was a little aprehensive at first), and it was suprisingly easy. Glad I did, and I saved a bunch of cash. Do a little research, pick up some feeler gauges and a caliper, and have at it. Its easier than you would think.

    Are there any other meets other than the weekly Thursday meets? Thursday is the only day of the week I work late (8:00 pm).

    Everyone once in a while people post something for alternate days.
    For example:

    Forecast says rain, rain, rain for tomorrow.
    How about Saturday sometime? Does that sound appealing to anyone?

    Figures that the forecast would go for a poop for Thursday... it was looking so good all week. Good thing I decided to ride to work today.

    I don't think I can do Saturday this week... Maybe Sunday?

    Sunday later on - i.e. 3pm or later could be done....
    Don't forget, it's Father's day, so quite a few people will be unavailable...

    Hey Dean, I saw you heading up the highway when I was on my way home from work (in my car) at 6:20.

    Steve, were you also heading east on 7&8 at about that time? Saw an SV like yours and the rider had dark gear and a flat black helmet.

    Hope you guys had a good ride. Great night for it...

    Just 3 of us last night - Dean, Steve and I.
    Kanoodled our way out through Maryhill and into Guelph...
    Checked out the Dyno runs at Royal for a bit and went back the same way we came (pretty much). Steve stayed chatting at Royal, Dean and I booked it. Hit Morty's for some wings. Great stuff there!
