End Of Season Fettle Day Sunday 13Th September - agrantg - 15-08-2015
Hi All,
Was thinking of hosting an end of season fettle day some time next month. Any interest? I've got a couple of things I would like to do, but nothing major that I can't do on my own over the winter, but I would like to try and get the old Divvy running if possible. It is just taking up space in the garage at the moment.
iSunday 13th September.

Early Sept ok for me, I'm away from the 19th. But I've got nothing urgent needs doing either.

Early to mid September for me as well. Nothing major on my bike, but could do with sorting my front brakes out to get rid of the slight binding.Â

Come on lads, since when has September been 'End of Season' ???

You ride TDM's, not crotch rockets ........there is no end of season ......just a short pause when the snow is too thick to ride through :good:

Would have loved to come but we're away the first two weeks of September.

Hope to make it along....... new fork oil is the only thing I'm contemplating.......

That's a right p.i.t.a
When I do mine I just siphon out as much as possible (usually 250 ml) and replace with new.
Saves all that time and effort removing the forks.

This from the man whose step by step guide to changing fork oil is probably the most seen on the forum!

Yeh I know but having done it once made me not want to do it again and as I change it every year I don't see it as a problem.
I only do it the right way the first time (including flushing and cleaning with thinners) so I know where I'm starting from.

We had a great time in Norfolk. Collected pebbles on the beach, visited a different supermarket every day and in the evening watched the traffic lights outside the hotel change. The recycling center was better than expected as well.

Damn. Wanted to see that. ð
Had a great time really. Saw loads of stuff and had the best fish n chips ever in Cromer. Will be going back in the not too far future.

Thanks Chris
Bummer. Bit too far from Devon for me I'm afraid.
