That's great news Mike. Remember to bring your helmet and stuff!

The whole family is bringing riding gear in case we get to borrow a bike! Justin already offered a ride on the 400F and that I can;t wait to take a rip on!
 
You said you are bringing the truck, correct? I might have a deal for you......pm inbound......

And remember, I offered a ride on the GR as well.
 
Can't wait til Thurs!


Trying to get the CB wrapped up. Not sure on my battery box situation. Would it be super ghetto to cleanly zip tie it to the front of the swingarm??

Not if they are stainless steel zip ties for exhaust headers........
 
2 days for me :) Tues night we pack the van and Wednesday early AM we hit the road!
 
1 for me suckas! I'm scheduled to go back Tuesday night, then I'm off for the next 7 days.

you don't see that being a problem if it is just temporary do you? I know it will look ghetto but don't know if I can finish my battery setup. I am going to try to today though.

Who cares what it looks like as long as it holds and is safe if it is temporary. I am a bad one to speak as my temoporary zip tied battery box is still zip tied. been like that for about 8 months now ;D and about 6000 miles. and mine are white and black plastic, not nice stainless exhaoust wrap type.
 
So excited, washed my bike yesterday to get it ready for the show. Camping stuff us in the corner ready to go.

Biggest problem with mounting it to the swinger is going to be vibration (obviously). If I HAD to rest the battery there, I would try to get as much cushioning under it as possible. Even then, it will most certainly kill your battery just from the bigger jolts to the acid and plates.

I'm hitting Jason up for any details on the Friday ride.

Just let us know the details, sir.
 
Yo Tim. When should I come to the swap meet site to get you that ez-up tent? I'd like to help set up to put in my dues for using the area. I'm available all day on Thursday and I'm going to be there around 2pm on Friday.
 
what is everyone doing for food at Kiley's? Do we just plan to throw in and buy food to cookout?


So pumped about this trip!!! :D
