10th Annual JVB Tech Day April 24, 2021 Alexandria Virginia

Postby JimVonBaden » Sat Mar 06, 2021 11:16 am

Announcing the 10th Annual JVB Tech Day. It is open to ALL BIKES!

This year it will be April 24, 2021 at my home in Alexandria, VA. (Number of participants may be limited due to COVID 19)

As always food and drink (non-alcoholic) will be provided, hot coffee and bagels in the morning and lunch of burgers, dogs, chili and a few sides. All complimentary! (Or maybe Pizza, not sure yet.)

All you have to do is show up. Come with maintenance or farkle installation in mind, or just to hang out and watch. There are always several people available to lend a hand, tools, GS-911 regular and WiFi for the Wetheads and 2 Harmonizers to sync your throttle bodies/carbs, and plenty of space to work.

ALL bikes are welcome, and nearly any level of work to be accomplished. Last year we had 35 bikes (COVID restricted), with plenty of room for more. I will have at least two lifts, and space for lots of work to get done. Tire changes can also be done (you can have them delivered to me, just PM me).

We will also have a small free/flea market where you can sell of give away your excess moto goodies.

Check here for great door prizes from www.jvbproductions.com and hopefully others.

Last year we had $2700 from great vendors and a bunch of service supplies from www.beemerboneyard.com. We had half a dozen more vendors donate great prizes. Watch here for updates.

For COVID purposes, please PM me your name and email. I promise I will not share either with anyone, nor will I use it to contact you for business purposes.

Your Screen Name will go here when you register with me:

I registered on the Meetup site. My F900XR has 5680 miles and will need the 6000 mile maintenance. I don't have a repair manual for this bike yet so I'll need help. Waiting for the manual from BMW Motorrad, Haynes, or JVB. (hoping...)

I don't have a meeup account, but did RSVP a "Going" on your Facebook page and would like to attend if there's room. I'm just going to be a lookie loo, so I understand if you bump me for someone that needs real work.
