Just a reminder for those coming for the tech day this Sunday... If you need any parts or accessories for your bike, please call our parts folks ASAP so we can be sure to have what you need with your name on it.

We look forward to seeing y'all this weekend. The weather is looking pretty good and, if we're lucky, all the snow will be gone by then :D

A quick note -- In the March BTS, it says the tech session starts at noon and/or after the club meeting. This is incorrect. The tech session, as has been posted here, starts at 8:30 am and wraps up at 1:00 pm. An e-mail correction should be going out shortly, but I wanted to make sure those on this thread were aware. And don't forget to move your clocks ahead for Daylight Savings Time!

I'm considering in joining the tech day and replacing the chain/sprockets on my wife's G650GS. The only thing I need is a chain breaker for the OEM chain that is on now, would anybody happen to have one?

I purchased a DID chain from Wunderlich that says it is the correct size (number of links) for the G650GS so no cutting to size will be needed, it also has a clip style master link. I also purchased the same size sprockets as OEM from Wunderlich. Also purchased new nuts and bolts for the rear sprocket.

Thanks,
G.

We've got you covered. Just see Stuart when you get here and he'll set you up.

A big THANK YOU to all the folks at Morton's for hosting the club's tech day. =D>

Stuart gave me the finer points to chain and sprocket replacement.

Patrick had a master link clip in stock that I needed.

Good folks indeed, that's why I do business there.

And of course it was good to see our club members/friends.

Looking forward to the Spring Open House and of course The Spring Fling!
