Is there a lack of domestic beer and conversations about oil weights and tire manufactures in your life?

Do you have fork seals that need replacing but don't want to tackle the job until there's a second set of hands available?

Is your bike making a strange ticking noise or do your dirt bike tires need to be swapped?

If you answered yes to any of these questions or didn't, Thursday Night Wrench Club is for you!

Every Thursday night we get together in someone's garage to drink beer and get greasy. Usually it's minor stuff like fork seal replacements, oil changes and valve adjustments but we've been known to go all the way up to a transmission rebuild over two weeks.

You don't have to have something to work on, just a fondness for wrenching. Post up if you're coming or have something to work on.

Usually we have it at my garage but always looking for new hosts. This week we'll finally be cranking the CB450 I got from @Chitza over a year ago but plenty of bandwidth for more.

 And where is this sweet and yummy club meeting at this week?
What we've got here, is a failure to communicate.  Strother Martin as the Captain in Cool Hand Luke.

Wouldn't be a garage party without strippers!

Well I will be watching possibly participating in the opening ceremony for the Grandfather Mountain Highland Games.

Modest Goals Possibly May Not.

When in trouble, shower down on the throttle. It either fixes the problem or ends the suspense.

Looking forward to seeing everyone this evening. I've got some natty in the fridge but if your tastes skew more bourgeois you may want to bring your beverage of choice.

If you've never made it out to an event before and live in the Birmingham area, this is a good one. Hope you'll join us!

Also, @IceCold4x4 are you bringing the ZRX for a diagnostic?
