Hello everyone! As of today, we have 90 registered! That's going to be a great turn out!
Just a reminder that rally registration closes on May 9 so that we can place our t-shirt order for the rally.
If you are coming, but have not sent in your registration, do it TODAY or TOMORROW!
After that, we will not accept any orders for t-shirts. We order a few extra of the most common sizes for the rally. You can only get what is available.
Have you all made your hotel reservations? If not, do it NOW! If our blocked rooms are full at Laquinta Inn, you'll have to find other lodging.
See you all soon!

Stock is 26". Whether it's factory or slipstream, it's the same size. The only difference between the 86 factory and a slipstream is the factory is straight up and the slipstream is angled back.

Re: How tall is stock windshield?
As an added to Draxxis posting;
Cee Bailey and I believe Slipstreamer as well measure 0.192" in thickness whereas OEM measures 0.139" in thickness. Almost 1/16' thicker.
So what does this matter? Well when one replaces a stock OEM windscreen with an aftermarket windscreen, the part # 92027-194 collars as shown on the "Cowling" parts illustration may not be long enough to bind/shoulder against the metal cowling stay, part # 39137-1057, before starting to crack the plexiglas.
Be careful with those aftermarket windscreen screws and collars, the collars may need a washer under them. Check before torquing the screws down.
