Speaking of sitting on bikes, at the last show, this is the one I liked the most:

They had to clean the slobber off the tank when I got off. Oh, and also the seat. But that wasn't slobber...

Now you're talking. Whack an Akra can on that and that smile would be permanent...

Only downside is the price. Don't think we will see many on the road.
I got a really good deal on my K1600 when I bought new but 3 years old just out of the crate. Less then what it would cost me to buy the 12S.

If you wait a few more years, once all the Gotta-Have-Newest-Shiny-Toy guys move onto the next new thing, you'll probably see some good deals on them. If you're not averse to buying used, those guys often put less than 1000 kms on them before they trade them in.

I've always been a fan of the RSV4.

Got a chance to ride one the very first year they came out.

 

[bigpoppa]

There is always this year, aren't you due for a new ride anyway?
Did @bigpoppa have one of these?

I had its comfier brother, not much of a difference though.

superbikes need super riders, which I am not.
Preferably on better roads than ours, ideally a racetrack with long straights.

Hell of a sound through that machine though!

Right now I'm think to go down Friday during the day, probably less busy, and cheaper ticket.
My other option is Sunday. I could be swayed if a group of GTAM'rs are planning to go.

I'm working in Scarberia on Friday, so thought I would grab some roti from a nice shop off Kingston Rd, then hit the show for a few hours in the afternoon on my way home.

Would love to buy one but we’re away during the show. Any chance to order outside of the show?

Yep. PM me

 

[cutekill]

Okay, let's have a contest.

Whoever gets to post #24 gets free tickets to the show!

Aaaaand GO!

Nope. Gotta answer the question.

 

[cutekill]

Flying back on 21st and might check out the show just to buy the shirt. Is this available only in white or do we also have black?

Additionally, hoping BMW shows up. If i change my bike this year, it would either be BMW R12 or Honda Rebel 1100, and I would like to sit on both to check out the riding stance.

White only, at this time.

 

[wolfpack27616]

White only, at this time.

Ok thanks. Will try to swing by on Sunday

And answer to your question: Riding plans for this year- I dont want to jinx it, but the last 4 years, all the riding I have been doing is impromptu rides as a part of GTA Photo tag. Hoping for much longer rides this year

It wasn’t originally in my plans to come to this show, but I can’t say no to catching up with some of you and grabbing one of those sweet GTAM T-shirts.

Are you still riding @bigpoppa or are you also taking some sabbaticals?

 

[Soulcatcher668]

Floorplan and vendor list is out.

still riding, not nearly as much as I want to, but will try to change that this year

 

[bigpoppa]

I'll be there friday evening

 

[Relax]

GTAM will be there and as always we got 3 sets of tickets up for grabs.

What are your plans for this riding season?

Thursday night rides, Deal's Gap in June, Hawk Rally in August, and a track day at RDT.

 

[Aens]

Oh, you're coming with us @Relax to RDT?

Most of the same. Thursday rides, Wednesday burgers, Gap, track days, courses. Lots of 2 wheel fun!

Yup! And yeah, forgot about Burger nights.

Riding to Fort George is on my list either this year or next.
