In my experience if there is a sale on gear get in first, if you wait till the last days of a show/sale you'll usually have only 3XL or XS left to pick from.
And there is bike parking at the front door in the past two years you have paid $5 to park there.

Going Saturday with some mates.  In my experience if there is a sale on gear get in first, if you wait till the last days of a show/sale you'll usually have only 3XL or XS left to pick from.

I thought that was your size?   |

If its an AM adventure on Sunday I'll catch Jukie, Betty and Trev there.

Just got back from said show , only spotted two other Ducati motorcycles outside which I was a little surprised at .
Ducati pavilion is nice and staff really helpfull .
If you need anything ask for "Eduardo Carbonell" he spent half an hour on the dog and bone , found some boots at the wharehouse for me at an amazing price and arranged to send them out to my LBS.
Nice .
Unlike another stand where they couldn't be bothered going out to there truck to get a pair that fit for me to try on.
Oh and they have the M 1100 on display purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!
get out there

Spent 4 hours there, burnt a trail to the gear sale and didn't find anything in my size which sucked, well actually I did but they were WHITE.....
And yes they scream white like crazy.
Saw the M1100 again bu had already seen it and sat on it the week before at Frasers launch.
Got a pair of ear mould ear plugs $60 happy with that, looked at 4 pairs of boots but nothing I really wanted to part with the $$$ for.
Then went down the road to MCAS new store to try to part with some $$$ for boots but they wanted $100 deposit just to get them in cause they were a smaller size than normal.
I didn't think a US 9 was very small or hard to sell but anyways.
The show is okay, it's bikes so of course your gonna love it but we have seen all the Duc's already so nothing really new to crow about.

Went today with a couple of mates. Wasn't too bad. The best thing about the show is seeing all the weird bikes. And how bikes are getting BIGGER in general. A few of the bikes I just shook my head at were the Honda DN , the one on the turntable with the instrument cluster buried waaaaaaay forward under the fairing, a few of the 'zooks, especially the B-King, it's the size of my house! And some of the rear tyres on these big bloody cruisers!  You'd use 3 inches of it before scraping something on the road! But the highlight was seeing Bigiains bike, sitting proud just outside the entrance. And mate asked if it had ever been washed? No, I replied, the grime is holding it together.  |
