This is a VERY tight fit with the NGW Central Run in Eureka Springs Ark this year .... don't think it will work for me.

Not sure about me. When they changed the management of it, and expanded the swap meet section to its current state, it is no longer the sweet little bike show it was. I guess that is progress. Looking forward more to Stockbridge this year

We need to get Stockbridge posted also. That is a nice small show.

I'll (more likely than not) be there. Haven't decided if I'm bringing the 1000 or the 1200 yet, but assuming I can get it running 100%, priority is to ride the KZ1300 over. Even if I don't take a bike (for whatever reason), I'll end up going.
1997 Valkyrie- Light Cutomization, but Too Busy Riding
1980 KZ1300- Bike's Haunted
1976 GL1000 (Yellow)- It Runs (Poorly) and Doesn't Leak (Mostly)
1974 Velosolex 3800- Better Than Walking
1972 CB750- Broke the Chain And Ate the Motor
1969 CT90- The Most Fun You Can Have on 90ccs.
1965 CA77 Dream- Needs a Full Teardown, but Complete

All advice I give is only valid until an expert corrects me.

My younger brother is in the process of getting his motorcycle endorsement. If he does, I'm probably bringing the GL1000 again, and he'll be following up on my 1200 Standard. I'm 99% positive I'll put both in the show, just because it really doesn't put me out any. I don't expect to win anything (mostly because the competition is so stiff, and because both are riders, not show queens), but hey- at least they're in a place people can check them out, right?

The KZ1300 still needs lots of work- I popped the carbs back on, and now it runs worse than it did before. I'd love to get it to Mid-Ohio, but it'll probably miss Gilmore (again).
