I would go if I hadn't returned back to California.  On the DC-Cycles list there are a bunch of people going on Saturday at about the time you have mentioned.  I think there are some GSers on that list as well.

Unfortunately I will have missed both the Long Beach and DC shows.

I'll definitely go.  I haven't decided whether it's gonna be Sat. or Sun.  Depends on if I can hook up with someone here.  Since I'm new to motorcycling it would be cool to go with someone more knowledgeable than me.  So, whoever is gonna go for sure let me know and I'll roll with ya. :)

I liked the show, Friday night was pretty much deserted. I spent a few minutes checking the GSXR-lite GS500. The cool thing is it will be easy to put an oil-cooler on our pre-04 bikes. It needs a new oil pan is all it would appear. The 4-pot caliper would be nice to have... I noticed they chose a low-rise bar to make the riding position more forward. I'd buy one if I were buying...
