It breaks up the winter months. Lots to see there. Don’t know how much new bikes are going to be available

Motorcycle Supershow Reviews 2024 Edition

- Start date
The January show will not have many (maybe some Harley) 2023 models of bikes. The February Manufactures show is where you will see all the new models.

Is the January show better than the March show ? I don't understand the differences at the International Centre shows.
March show is the manufacturer's show.
Jan show is for clubs, vendors, showbikes and dealers. Great place to meet people.
For me personally, I like both shows. Get to see some old buddies. Sometimes you’re able to find hidden gems.
I will be going at some point. The younger boy is working the show at the Super Sonic booth.

I thought the manufacturers show is downtown at Exhibition place ? The ones at International Centre (January / March) are trade show swap meets, (sausage fest ! LOL) I want to see new street bikes and dirt bikes from the manufacturers.... not dried meat and t shirts
Relax

That's my impression also. These are the three shows I'm aware of, and I usually only go to the second one where most manufacturers have displays:

The show should be fun. The January NAIMS show has more vendors (dealerships, schools, tours, some manufacturers, moto related businesses, etc) but it does have more of a swap meet feel in some of the halls. The February show in Toronto is the manufacturer show, less vendors overall but all the latest bikes will be there. Last year many dealerships opted out of the show for many of the reasons Lightcycle mentioned. Dealerships were selling bikes left right and center so they needed staff at the actual shop rather than setting up and staffing a booth. Hopefully this year both shows go back to "normal"... whatever that means these days lol. Come by the NFP booth to day say hello!

Yes, you will normally get better deals, especially if more than one vendor is selling the same items. If you go on Sunday, you may get the best deals, people don't want to pack up everything to take back to their store, but by Sunday styles and sizes may be limited.

^^^This is accurate
We go through this discussion every year. Lol
Some people have short memories. LOL
I'll be going on Sunday with the tickets I won yesterday! Probably take my son and dad to it as the kid is <6 so he's free anyway.
And it's a nice time to spend w/ dad as he's never been.

My wife calls them the "clean" show and the "dirty" show.
Legit.
When Toronto ran three shows (remember that?) I used to go to all three of them. Always run into riding buddies that you haven't seen since the end of the riding season.
What else are you going to do in the city that's motorcycle-related in the dead of winter?
Ride long enough and you'll get roped into manning one of the booths for one of the organizations you're involved in. Then you get in for free!
I think one year I was manning two booths.
