Default Maintenance Clinic in the Near Future?

Clutch plates are at minimum spec along with the springs and the basket probably needs replacing while I'm in there for good measure as it is has quite a bit of surface deformation where the driven plate's tabs contact. Chain and sprockets are singing their death song too and will need replacing in the near future. Rear tire is starting to bug me with that semi-floating along the road is it the flat spot or do I have a flat tire feeling.

when would you like to do it, let's just figure out who needs maintenance and then tailor the date to those people

Before the Hill Country trip in May. Won't have the last of the parts until next weekend and that puts it a bit close to the MS150. First weekend in May I'll be diving.

Either of the last two weekends in April?

Don't really want to drop the coin on an impact wrench, but I will probably give in to the tool bug and buy one anyway.

How 'bout sooner than that? Maybe April 12th/13th weekend?

I'll be out of town the last two weekends of April. :P So neither of those weekends would work for me.

I have an Evo Clutch slave, side mounted damper and hopefully some new levers that need to be installed on the monster. 8)

MS150 is that weekend. Won't be in it personally, but others probably are.

I need to get in on this too. I'm due for a valve adjustment.

Just knocked out the clutch aspects. Still waiting on sprockets/chain.

This is a pretty good electric impact wrench btw. Made quick work of the clutch drum nut.
