The old 12 is purring, but needs a little TLC before its ready. Very nice to have met you FVance. Drop on by TFA and say hi to all the classy guys and gals.  Should have at least one copper top Busa, 4 ZX-12s, and a handful of other very nice Busas.  :thumb:  :thumb:   :thumb:

The Hayabusa is running great. I'm still doing little things like screwing fairings back on and checking fittings. I can't wait!

Does anybody have an extra water pump that is coming to Goliad? Mine went out on the dyno Saturday, my local Suzuki shop just told me all the warehouses are out and I cant get a new one anytime soon. :cry:

Depending what time the wife gets home from work, we'll be enroute.  I was hoping to be there around 4pm but it might be closer to 6mph.  I'll grab some space, what time are you guys coming...?  I guess I can park across to save enough space for TFA, if people won't be there until Friday early... :D

Let me know what you guys need...?

Hey Karl, this time I am bringing a 12x12' tent with a "porch" extention.....Since Sleeper isn't coming this time I can't whore his tent so bringing mine.  Set me out some room to add the west wing onto the TFA fat camp mansion.  I will have lots of drinks(ie. beer) and stuff for everyone.

Nice. That should add at least 2 mph for pushing broken-down bikes back to the pits.  :lol:
