    DIY = Do It Yourself.... There is an interesting analogy to it which I will share in the first meet...


    PS: Stop comparing yourself with Pune and all... Pune folks meet every mid week for a casual G2G as well, the sheer volumes of G2Gs and the availability of the fantastic places like Motocafe makes it an ideal place for such discussion.... Apna gang doesnt meet as often...
    Lets keep it simple for the start...

    - Know Your Bike...as in key parts their importance and location on the bike
    - Daily checks and inspection
    - Beginners maintenance procedure
    - Changing Oil--with recommended oil change procedure and schedule
    - Cleaning air filter--same as oil change
    - Cleaning spark plugs
    - Adjusting Brake freeplay for bikes with drum brakes
    - Adjusting Clutch freeplay

    Feel free to add on this list.

    This should be good enough to get people interested in the programme and get started

          This kind of meet will be definitely very helpful & useful for each of us. Am sure everyone here would be interested & curious to know the How-To-Do basic things on our bike. Even am in for such wonderful knowledge distribution g2g.!

          @Pranit_Crystal Myth .. if its an in-city meet, then no need of 'full gears' I guess, but the more gears & safe, the better.! B'coz, wearing a gear should be a habit rather then a rule now..!
          If we need a mech,then id suggest we meet up at reddys garage at goregaon.He is a nice chap,i am sure he would oblige as he is open on sundays.

              But i guess he is very busy on sundays. He has more vehicle to deal with.

              • Know ur bike

                This is an good initiative for beginners like me who have to go 2 mech now & than 4 small small things.
                Goregoan meet will be a best options has many of the XBHpians know him & reddy know them.
                We can decide any sunday & Take prior Appointment from him.
                If he is very busy. We can pay him some bugs like we can contribute 20/- or 50/- bugs each & pay him.
                But this meet shud be in good number of people. so that he can earn his best.
                So seniors pls look into the matter at the earliest.
                We can decide such kind of meets each month & has the months will passs on we will not need mech n our experienced seniors will be our mentors

                        Regarding xBhp-Punekars, I was not comparing ourselves with them but deriving some inspiration to better our gang !
                        Nyah the idea isnt for me\us to venture into another thread to find out information.
                        What I want to see is which topics in particular do you guys individually want... +1 really doesnt help in such a session....
