scratch wants to service your GS!  :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown:

Ok, you pervs!  :nono: *I* was talking about syncing your GS carbs; what were YOU thinking??? Hmmm...??  :cookoo: :laugh:

We'll start the carb syncing at 9AM (unless we change our minds and decide to start later). Post your time preference in this thread!

PM pandy for address, directions, and contact number.

Post your preferred time slot here (9AM, 9:30AM, 10AM, etc) so that we can get an idea of how many folks want to come play.

If there's time, and if we haven't worked scratch into the ground  :icon_lol:, we can take a GS ride! Route to be determined later.

Keep checking back for more info!  :thumb:

Yep, this is a 'free' service, provided by yours truely, in hopes of continuing a happy, healthy and harmonious relationship with all your carbs out there.  Your carbs will be synchronized dynamically using a PCCC (circa 1990, now Motion Pro) mercury vacuum stick (calibration not required).  It would be a good idea if your valves are within spec, and your carbs already jetted.  No warranty of work implied (how could we?  It's free  :flipoff:).

Customers may experience smoother vibrations, increased fuel economy, smoother power delivery, maybe a slight increase in percieved power, and better throttle response.  If you don't there's something else wrong with your bike; get it fixed.  :flipoff:

Please make sure your crab area is clean.

Scratch, would you mind if some non-GS'ers attended?  There's a few TLZone members in your neck of the woods who need some help...

I think we're going to keep the first service day for GS's. If we find we have room, we can always change that later.  :thumb:

Great idea!!  When Scratch coming into the Miid-West?  Baring that, how's about someone digitally video'ing the event and posting the process so the rest of us can be "virtually there".

Feeling left out here in the land of the 24°F morning air...   :cry:

Odds are that I'll be back up in Norcal by then. Assuming I am, I'll definitely be there.

Pandy need to keep the scratch fed.  Scratch no work without food; food=energy.
