Tech Library Checklist

Hey everyone I thought it would be a good idea to create a list of things we should all try to add to the Tech Library (Accessory installs, common trouble shooting, basic maintenance). Really create a great collection of how-to's (with pics/vids, difficulty rating, etc). So what are some things you'd like to see in the tech library?



THE LIST
Adjusting Idle/When to adjust Idle
Simple Things You Should Check Before Freaking Out (make sure your kill switch is in the on position, make sure your battery is connected, etc)
Installing Top Case
Installing Windscreen
Installing Crash Bars (arggh some times I hate doing that...lol)
Installing Prima Pipe
Installing Radio (with warnings about drawing too much power)
Removing Rear Wheel
Changing Jets
Kitting Your 50cc
Checking and setting the valves
Changing Rollers
Changing Springs
Changing Brakes
Changing Bulbs



Most of the things I can think of are pretty easy. Once I get settled (and get a camera again) I'd definitely like to help knock somethings off the list :)

Some of the more technical stuff like the jets. Rollers, Springs, Brakes. Maybe changing bulbs too.

I'll dust off the camera and see what I can do.

Will the images be uploaded to MB's web storage?

What about installing the Stebel horn?

I'd like more info on that especially on an '08 model

So I posted the tutorial on how to adjust the rear brake. Anyone else care to knock out some of these tutorials?
