Hey all,
Since it rained today, my plans to ride tomorrow are nixed, so I'm heading down to the Bike Show. Who's going??
I'll be working at the Double Dog booth. Come by and say "hi"
Will do [thumbsup]
I'll be there on Sat around noon.

Fixed it for ya.
I am going Sunday.
I will be caging it though. My S4R is having trouble starting to the point I am going through Batteries. I need to get it to Nichols somehow after I get back from my Japan trip.
Looks like its going to be a crappy dealer showing again his year.
According to the online website no Mv Agusta, Aprillia , Triumph or Moto Guzzi =(
Those were the main ones I was interesting in seeing
Is it just me, or was the show smaller and much less interesting this year?
I was disappointed to not see the new Ducati bikes, and it seemed like a lot of other vendors were MIA.
It wasn't you, it was disappointing not to see the new Ducs, especially the Anteater, but good times nonetheless. The 1198's were gorgeous and that Super Duke was mean. Almost forgot, and everyone got to meet Tigre in person, his bike looked great!!!

He had me thrown out of the show when he was showing me all the trick new bits on his bike and I asked if they installed anything to keep him from crashing so much.
:P
Yeah, that DoubleDong exhaust looked pretty cool.

Yup... The show is getting smaller and smaller ever year it seems. All the vendors displaying 20% to 70% off pisses me off to only see its still higher than you can get it at most places outside of the show.
The Ducati booth this year was bleh...
Doesn't matter though... My replacement for the S4R next year prob wont be another ducati.... whohahahaha ;D

his bike looked grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreat!!!
Fixed.
Met him in person? When you get home he'll be sitting on your porch with two slurpie's, waiting for the newest fan.
If he asks "Do you want to see my X-Box?" don't get in the van.

When the Double Dog booth guys turned around I licked tigre's bike :P
When you turned around before you licked my bike, I wiped my feet on the bike.

You don't have to be Ponce de Leon to see where this is going.
