I'll probably be going on Saturday as well. Most likely I'll try to get there in the morning, ride a few bikes, eat some free food, and head out sometime in the early afternoon.

As far as I know, nothing changed on these bikes from 1988-2007, so you should be fine.

I'm looking forward to the demo day! I'm going to try to get seat time on the R3, The FZ-07 and FZ-09, and maybe the R6. I'll also probably try to show up around 9:30.
