February 21, 2006: The Hayabusa linkage is here.
It's a nice piece - but I forgot that it was designed for a shock with a clevis (is that the right term?) instead of a round bushing. I might alter the shock (yikes) or try a couple of other options. I'm also going to try cutting my existing hood and turning the louvres around. It's a cheat but it might work. Rivet lines around the panels in the hood will be less embarassing than having backward louvres.

Car and Driver is going to be doing an article on Locosts. If you happen to have one and are able to make it to the Southwest Se7ens Festival taking place in Texas in late April, please let me know! I'll be at the event as a guest speaker.
