If it's a go for today at or around 1500, we should definitely give it a try. I'm also interested in tomorrow, too...most definitely with the temps close to 80.
I bought a rashed up 996 red RH upper & lower fairing for $80 and got it mounted this evening. Ugly but structurally fine: I also managed to get the Dzus fastener to work on the cracked part of the upper nose: I have two complete LH & RH fairings in very good condition on the way but in red - they'll just have to do until I decide what to do with the paint. I also have the CF upper nose from jbot and a fiberglass upper nose as spares. Additionally, I have a CF fender and CF chin spoiler on the way.
I'm on call all weekend so I can't go for more than a 1/2 hour at a time w/out checking my phone but otherwise I should be able go for a ride. Wait, isn't it supposed to rain tomorrow? Sunday, however, is looking like a gem of a day to go riding!
Old Gixxer's in good condition can still bring close to his asking price. I miss having my '92 Gixxer 1000 - it wasn't powerful by today's standards but it was a fun and capable bike to ride not to mention comfortable.
