    Vintage Motorcycle Show..New Bedford, Massachusetts

    2nd Annual Vintage Motorcycle Show - New Bedford - Tatlock Gallery

    2nd Annual Vintage Motorcycle Show



    There's a tinge of fall in the air and if you listen closely, you can hear the roar of twelve rare motorcycles making their way to the Tatlock Gallery in New Bedford for the second annual Vintage Motorcycle Show.

    In Oct 2006, the gallery opened their first major show with a dozen iconic motorcycles on exhibit. The show was a hit, drawing nearly 2000 visitors. It put the gallery's name "on the map" and motorcycle enthusiasts who missed it having been asking all year "When's the next one?"

    The 2006 exhibit featured such notable bikes as a 1974 yellow Ducati Twin Sport and the 1968 Velocette Thruxton, with it's bubble shaped gas tank and gleaming fishtail muffler. The rarest bike in last year's show was surely the 1971 Seeley Condor, one of seven still in existance.

    This year's line-up promises to be just as exciting as 2006. One star is a 1949 Vincent 'Rapide', a younger brother of Britain's legendary 'Black Shadow'. It's a monstrous 1000 cc. vee-twin lashed to seat and wheels. As fabulous and perfect as it is daunting. A collector's dream.

    Our centerpiece bike of the 2007 show will be a 1946 Indian 'Chief' complete with bullet-nosed sidecar. A red blur of vintage plumpness with swooping fenders and snazzy lettering fore and aft. This bike is "unrestored, orginal", meaning no one took it apart and put it together incorrectly or with after-market "goodies". Pure Americana right down to its' fringed leather saddlebags. It doesn't get any better than this.

    The Vintage Motorcycle Show will open Saturday, Oct 6 with a kick-off party from 6-10 pm and continue until Oct 31st which will feature a closing celebration with a beer tasting event hosted by Buzzard's Bay Brewery.
