Bikerscum - Patrick St. Jean

...or adventures in motorcycle maintenance. I went out to the BMW club's tech day to get some regular maintenance done. It was a busy day with a really good turnout and I definitely got some help learning how to do the work. The summary was that I got the oil, transmission, and final drive fluids changed, new spark plugs, new air filter, valves adjusted, and throttle bodies synced. The alternator belt replacement didn't go so well, and I ran out of time so didn't go after the fuel filter or the brake/clutch bleeding.

Things I learned were that there are some special tools which I need to buy, but other than that the work isn't that hard, just time consuming and tedious.
