It's Back...Spring 2016 Ontario FJ owners Clinic

[Sabre093]

Snow's gone and warm weather is coming and we all have the itch to Kookaloo!!!!!(that was for you Mr.Monkey)It's clinic time and the date and location is in the works....Take a look at what ya need and bring it with ya...we also have some plans in the works for some weekend rides and i believe there's a Camp-n-ride coming too.As always everyone's invited and even if your horse is down come on out and meet the guy's and get to know your fellow Ontario FJ'ers
You still have time to send orders into our resident FJ Guru Randy@RPM for parts if you need them!

Sounds good. Last May at FJ Johnnie's was the only time I could get away for a scheduled FJ day in 2015.
To get the date figgerin' worked on, if my work situation stays the same, May 7 or 21 are available, and June 4 and 18. But I'd book off if I have to.

 Thanks for the push guys. The spring clinic will be on the 21st of May. It's a Saturday. Mark it on your calendars. Not sure what the theme will be this year. Perhaps," It was a long warm winter, why isn't your bike ready yet?". Or something. If anyone has any suggestions on what to do let me know. I will send a PM to anyone who does not have my address.

Thanks for hosting this, johnnie V (V is for viagara).  Should be a great time..

Idea for a theme might be: How to Fish your keys out of the Gas tank!     Im sure there would be someone here to give us some direction eh?

Seriously, .....there has been mention of some guys looking to get their carbs synced....  I can bring my manometer,  and there are others who might be able to as well.  The more, the better...

Any other suggestions?

I'm probably a no-go.  Scheduled to work that Thurs-Sat night (May 19-21).  We have a new floater guy to fill in but I don't know if he will be trained enough by then.  He has three jobs to be trained in so it may take some time.

If by some miracle I can book it off, then I will let you know ASAP.  I'm in the midst of installing some new floats (I know I promised I wouldn't touch them again, but... ).  First though I have some f'ing screws that are stuck.  I bought the allen head replacement kit from RPM when I got the floats.

I have a Motion Pro synch tool, so if I can't go, anyone coming from east or maybe north of Toronto can swing by my place and pick it up.  I'm only about 5min south of the 401 in Scarborough.

 I would like to get down there but I dont have the onions to ride down there across all that congestion and cagers that are trying to kill me, I live east of Bancroft and dont mind to travel but I stay away from 4 lanes of traffic. I know many of you know my area and the only complaint I have heard are that some of the roads are a little bumpy, since I have the RPM rear shock I laugh at those bumps now plus it makes for a little excitement. There is some excellent riding up here otherwise and maybe I can set up a meet and greet get together up here and go for a nice rip for those who love north of seven this summer. If I had to choose a topic for a clinic it would be understanding the shim bucket design and setting the valves on the FJ.

Howdy Gents,
Good to hear about the clinic. I am interested but i don't know if my FJ will be insured by then
Regardless i plan to attend, 2 wheels or 4, just because you's is such a lovely bunch of humans to hang around

i guess the date is still open or are we pretty confirmed for 21 May ?

[fj johnnie]

 Yes that date has been confirmed.

I think a carb sync would be great as my 88 hasn't had it done since I've owned it and  I'd like to learn how to do it for my 2 other fjs.
If we don't do carb syncs perhaps some sensitivity training would be in order for the bullies in our fj group.

Should be a good time
