No Probs BMvin......The set up day for the show is the Friday before...with "breakdown" of the show from around 5pm onwards on the Sunday...whereby all of us there do help and assist to get everything set-up and cleared away...takes around an hour or so...Other than that its sit around on the stand for the Saturday and Sunday...and/or take in the rest of the show...Friday night before the show is normally "steak night" with a couple of shandies... Wink and Saturday night is similar but an Indian meal...both BimotaNige and Geekay off the Forum here usually stay over also so the more the merrier as to whatever you wish to join in with

Might take an hour to pack stand away , but it took us at least 90 minutes to set it up , you don't get second price for not going that extra mile !!! Laughing

No , it actually took about 4-5 hrs to set up, and packing away is not the issue its getting out of the carpark that takes another 2 hrs.

I'm sure geekay will chime in with "how wood you know how long it took" Laughing
Fairly casual folk we are though, assist each other...and would take less time if we didnt bring so many bikes...or fight for pride of place on a bimota rug... Etcetc...does give a chance to look around at the other stands though before opening day...

Hi Steve,
Yes I still have my subtly painted SB6 (still with poorly gearbox)
Hoping to get my Harris in some form of presentable state for the OldSkoolSuzuki stand this year (I’m going to be a busy boy)

Do you know what the cut off date is.
If I can get my SB6 rolling I'd love to put it on the stand. Bring your own shades Cool ..

Si..
