Cleveland Bike Show.

So the show SUCKED. The only manufacturers that showed up were the Big 4 and their matching metric cruisers, Ducati, and HD. No Aprilia, no KTM, no BMW, no Triumph, no Guzzi, and of course no Buell. The IX center was about as half as full as it was last year, and they just stuffed more vendors inbetween the spaced out manufacturers. And with the economy taking its toll on the development of the new bikes, everything basically was a rehash of last year with some new paint jobs. I have lots of pics to put up, but PB is on the fritz, so I am going to test it out with one pic first. You guys should like it. :lol:

Winners- new Kawasaki Z1000, Ducati 1198S Corse, Kawasaki ZX-14 (again)
Losers- new Ducati Multistrada, Aprilia, KTM, BMW, and Triumph

Let me know if you can't see it...:dthumb:

I can't see it, but thats par for the course. :lol:

I can see it. Im not upset I missed it this year. Some random guy at the gym mentioned it so I talked to him about it and he said that it was a joke this year even compared to last year.

Who is the Porkchop in the pic? LOL

The Long Beach, CA one in Dec. was pretty good. PACKED...I couldn't even walk anywhere. I could imagine in Cleveland there are mostly cruiser riders since there isn't a close track and all ur roads are flat.

That VFR pic looks a lot better than the other pics of it on this board.

I never smile in pictures. It was comfortable though. And definitely not heavy.

Heavier than the '09...

That's not even half my pics. I took around 150 :lol:

I didn't bother taking pics of most of the Tapout "customs." The hillclimb bike and the Boys and Girls club bike caught my eye though. That rainbow chrome is wild.

Yea i took about 125 this year, but shit there was not much to take. Last year I took about 220!

PR...good pics (now that I can see them)

I sat on a Streetfighter, a Monster, and Hyper this weekend. The SR is bad ass...but the Monster and Hyper are much more upright and comfortable to me.

And that rainbow chrome is wild.

Great pictures PR and PC... glad I didn't miss anything good other than you guys!

A Shelby Busa? :scratch:

Out of those 4 I'd take the Hyper. It's tall though, well not for you, but I can't flat foot it. But its not so tall that I feel unsafe.
