Default Possible Tech Day??

I think we need to arrange one because I have yet to change the oil on the bike I just purchased and I would like to have someone else around to make sure I don't seriously screw anything up. I know you're thinking "How fucking hard could it be to change oil?" And I know it's not very hard, but I also don't have the appropriate tools and such.

Plus, I'm sure there are plenty of other people who would like to get some things done but just don't have the time, place, materials etc.....Let's make a day out of this!

I've got decent tools and minimal mechanical skills... (dangerous combo)
I could possibly help facilitate such a thing if there were sufficient interest.

I can pull a bike apart and put it back together again, and I have the tools, so if i can help just let me know.

i think posting this on other bikes sites may have more luck. i know I've seen them do this on streetknights and posted pics from the bbq that went along with it. but that was a year or so ago.

I changed the oil about a week before you bought it, if that matters.

I run the suzuki oil in mine Krystal. Its the EXACT same thing as the Honda oil just 1.xx cheaper per quart. Im not a big fan of Manufacturer oil like Honda oil, Suzuki oil, etc. But they said it had "special additives" for the clutch. but since it get changed so few times I figured what the hell.
