I've got a couple of deep fryers I could bring to the Maintance Day "party" and we could deep fry our own stuff. :D

That could turn out to be pretty bad if you decide to just add random stuff (I am thinking non-edible stuff) to a deep fryer to see what will happen BUT if we use food stuffs, it will save Dufremle lots of cash :D

The cheapest ones (Harbor Freight) are hard to come by since they discontinued the motorcycle wheel attachment, but they work just fine. I think the Cycle Hill changer is the cheapest you can get nowadays for a manual changer.

I want one in my garage, but now is not the right time for me to buy one. :(

If someone wants to get as heavy as doing clutch plate replacements we can do that, but need to keep in mind that plates need to be soaked, and gaskets tend to rip when they are removed so all of that needs done in advance and parts ready.

Please clarify what you mean by hells angels, are you refering to cruiser folks, real hells angels, or other sport bike riders?

It is, along with the rest of Texas.

It's also home base for the Boozefighters, but they're not a 1% club so it's not quite the same thing.

hmmmm...lets think about this for a sec. Weather is to bad to walk around in warm clothes and umbrella eat great, fatty foods, yet you think he'll ride in the same weather? :SideSplittingLaughter:
