    New Jersey noob LF someone with a garage, some experience to help wrenching

    Hi!

    Have some winter upgrades lined up for the gs850 and I lack both the space and the confidence to tackle them on my own (the space is the real killer here, but both are relevant).

    I'm hoping to do the following:

    - replace my rear shocks
    - replace my fork springs
    - replace tach cable
    - get fuel gauge working
    - stainless front brake line
    - new cylinder cover head gasket and breather gasket
    - valve adjustment
    - check my exhaust, maybe some work to do sealing where the megaphones attach to the pipes (exhaust connectors?)
    - replace seat cover

    most of these parts are at my house already.

    i figure this could take me awhile, especially as someone new to wrenching. i don't have any place that i can leave the bike disassembled, and i'd love to have some help and company while i "get my feet wet"

    wondering if anyone in new jersey or NYC would be willing to share their garage and experience with a new GSer. I'll bring the beer / your beverage of choice.

    thanks kindly,

    aaron
