Save your $$$-not worth the trip.
Some interesting custom choppers and the 100 year old bike exhibit but not much else-
There were some ducs, a new RR, some polished bikes, the new Kawa z1000 and some Triumphs-I did get to check out the Tuono and Falco-ummmmm nice-the sales guy said the Tuono was an SV on steroids![]()
But I really want to see the new SVs and the Triumph 600-oh well-
Cheers![]()

Yup-
$12 to go in and $14 for parking-this was not a $26 show.

agreed, not much of a show... but DID finally find a jacket for the soon-to-be-Mrs. Bemused: an Xpert (name I'm unfamiliar with) more sport-touring than full-on sport, but has foam armor in all the right places... and the guy threw in a set of hard armor, as well... for me, that made it a worthwhile trip![]()
did like some of the "100 yr of motorcycling" exhibit, but it was kinda thin...![]()
WWSD? (what would Sneakers do?)

Same here, $14 for parking. Oh well, I don't plan on going back next year. Mostly HD shit, not enough sport bike vendors. I did happen to catch the Texas Bikini Team show, not bad.

The only way I was going to the show was to take my 1 year old girl soooo since it was pissing most of yesterday I parked in the hotel lot (hence the $14) and sprinted across the street with the stroller.
My wife was cracking up...here I am the only guy pushing a baby stoller at a motorcycle show (although there were alot of babies-mom and dad were both there). I had HD guys opening doors and talking to Audrey....it was pretty funny.
Audrey was laughing at me as I sat on the Tuono and Falco-that got a rise from the folks in the immediate area.
PD

I saw that same bike at the show at UNH.. the kid hacked the exhaust together.
That R-1 with the wire wheel is GAAAAAYYYYYY!!!![]()
yeah the kid was showing me the exhaust he built on the ZX-9 much longer tubes and lots of bends... I'm sure it doesn't flow well![]()
