What happened??
Several people stepped up and offered help with the jetting. Thanks again for that, guys! However, from what I could tell from my test ride in the pouring rain it didn't correct the 'surging' problem. It did it twice on my test run. I'll be picking it back up from Stan's place today (as long as he is home) and riding it back here, so I'll have a better idea of how it is running.

Looked like a fun time, but one quick question. Who's idea was it to crack open an engine while the entire area was filthy and dirty? The cases and frame of that Honda look nasty. It's not really that hard to take a brush, some soapy water, and some degreaser/brake cleaner to a bike before doing something serious, especially when you're going into a "clean" engine. Just wanted to point this out so someone else doesn't think swapping pistons is a piece of cake and gets some crap or debris floating around in their motor.

Jeff was changing the top end on his street legal CR500 and I don't think he cares about dirt/debris floating around his motor. He just runs it anyhow.
Heh, you can even see my wee little bavarian monster in the back there..
Pabst Blue Ribbon is from Bavaria?

Here are some of my pics.
Hey guys, Another great day full of wrenching and happy fun with fellow motorcyclists!
I think we had 3~4 bikes going at the same time. Everything went smoothly and i'm glad everyone got to wrench on their bikes.

Plenty of DRZ's to go around!

We nearly took over my whole street!

The ony way to wrench -- with a bud in hand.

After the tech day was over, and the weather turned sour, we busted out some refreshments.

The 'late' crew was treated to some Karaoke and another BBQ was started!

End of the night, bikes were safely stored in the garage, and this was how I felt

Yeah, the most I've done is change brake fluid and oil before. It was actually a lot of fun to get so dirty.
Wow, what a day. I'm finally over my hangover and am back to being a functioning member of society. Damn, Minty pwned me with a 'mystery' drink.
Thanks again Stan for keeping my bike safe overnight!

Good times!

I was in shock that you were wrenching. Typically you let me do all the swearing at mechanics. I worked on making convertible beers for everyone (that's where you pop the top)
I had a very successful tech day, everyone had convertible beers
