Hey G, not yet. Keeps freezin' cold here but temp seems to rise to above 0 Celsius this week. Preparations are a ongoing proces.
Barnett told me they will give, a big thanks for that ;D ;D, me a set of 'dry' plates when I am in Daytona. Engine is almost ready to go in the frame.

Cheers,

rob

Hey Mick,

Working on that. But need to be sure it keeps working and in one piece, before the price is set. Think there is no one more excited than my partner and me, but we will not rush into this. There is so much development involved and takes up so much time and there is more in life, the (very supporting) wives and children, the daytime jobs, etc.  ;D ;D
And most of all we want it to be a successtory for all of us.

Cheers mate,

Rob

Use them to slide the primarys in and connect with a spring. Really dislike the oem mounts.

I know, TG just did not know what Evisa was. The esta I had already done. Was afraid I missed something. Last time I was in the States was 16 years ago. No Evisa or Esta back than.
But thank you guys for your concern, really appriciate it.

too bad you don't have some goodies with you, or i'd say bring em over and ship from here!  that way it'll be cheaper!

Well G,

This is more of a roadtrip for inspiration and the fullfilling of a boys dream. There is always one or more moments in your career(??) when you have to (re-)consider which way to go. Have done some things right but made some mistakes along the way too. so just want to see which way to go with voxonda.com. There is no way I am going to drop it, but need to know where to go next. Sorry for all the blabla, but need to make some decisions. And hopefully see some of you guys and a bunch of nice classic racebikes.

Cheers, Rob
