Order the kits and service them yourself :-) that's the beauty of that company
I think jcook does them
Here's what you do, Tony:
1. Get the service kits.
2. Book a house in cave country.
We'll meet and dive on a Saturday, then I'll service the regs Saturday night while you watch. Then we'll dive on Sunday.
I'll service the regs in exchange for the night's lodging. After watching the complete servicing, you can decide if it's something you want to attend a class and learn yourself.
Keep in mind I'll be in Colorado February 8 - 18. Also keep in mind there's a mini-workshop in Marianna the next weekend.
There is a wonderful step by step tutorial on You-tube showing how to take apart a Hog regulator. I got a kit, followed that video step by step and my reg works fine now. It was freeflowing.
Ruh row. ;-)

I would take sludge up on his offer. He most certainly wouldn't use an adjustable wrench... ;-)

If you don't service regs already then I don't recommend trying to service them yourself, even with a youtube video tutorial. There are issues that can occur that only experience servicing regs can help you with. While Russell's offer is a great one, again, if you don't service regs that often, I don't recommend doing it. Send it to someone who does it on a regular basis.
There are many who do including Wayne in High Springs (not Kinard). It is the Wayne who services regs for the local shops. If you're interested, I'm working with HOG to organize a certification class soon in north Fl.
Name a date. I have a flexible schedule and am in High Springs/Luraville at least once a month. I put on a 3 day class last summer in High Springs.

ok...I'm going to start making a list of folks interested. The class will be limited to 5 or 6 unless we bring in 2 instructors. It's a 1-day class. There is some required reading to do and you have to come with a D1 HOG regulator to work on as well as some tools. I will post all the information together when we confirm the logistics.
For anyone seriously interested, I'd recommend getting a copy of "Regulator Savvy" by Peter Wolfinger and start reading it. This is required reading for the class.
Wayne @ Amigos is now a HOG Dealer and has D1's in stock as well as the Reversible 2nd stages. He also has a limited number of service kits which will also be required. I can get more as needed or we'll have them at the class. Once again, I will post the logistics, required tools, payment info, etc, when we're ready and all the requirements so you can be prepared.
For those interested in information, send me a mail to whodunit68 at gmail and I'll work to keep you posted.
Thanks,
Steve
Hey Garth, what do you fly?Quote:

There was enough interest that we should do it again (3 people I know of couldn't make the date we chose.) Jim offered up his shop again (thanks Jim.)Quote:
