Yup, Bren and I still got together and had lunch. He's done a nice job with his VX - I'm going to have to bribe him to help me install a fairing similar to what he's done. And if anyone's considering painting their dash, I can attest that his foxfire dash looks stunning in person. I was initially skeptical based on the pictures in his gallery, but I'm a believer after seeing it up close.
Anywhoo, the baby's due in late February so things will be busy, but I'm sure I could slip out for a few hours for another meet if you guys were good enough to come down here again. Just let me know when/where.
