Javits center show

[Ecooke21]

Went to the bike show in NY today. got to see the new R1.. very nice! also the new 600rr feels SOOOOOO light and thin.. Hypermotard was cool, but still not the "production" version. the 1098 was smokin!!! Of course the usual crap was there.. Rossi's yellow M1 was on display.. Husqvarna was there this year, no 650 though..

one of the coolest thing at the show for me anyway was the Toyota tacoma concept truck.. wow was this thing cool.. it had a cool matte finish for the paint.. I would definitely drive this badboy.. If they make a 4 door like this I might have to trade the Titan in for it..

IMO that was one of the ugliest things there.

the color looks like something that should be found in a baby's diaper.

Whatis concept about the truck besides the color/rims/etc? anything neat?

hey, i liked that paint, too. definitely something that should sell well. but a V8 in a truck that size? i'd be looking for more fuel economy in a small truck - since it would mainly be towing my bike and not for offroad itself.

I thought it sucked. It was defintly smaller this year , I saw more people selling shity sunglases. It was like going to the flea market. no playstation trailer , no 650 ,no umbrela girls. I see pics of other shows and I expected more from NY. There was something missing--- maybe me next year!!

yeah, and NO KTM! one of the reasons I was going there (yeah, I know, I should have checked the exhibitor list).

wtf?
